    The dreaded "tap"

    Cracked flex plate maybe? Happened to mine, it just wasn't as loud at idle. The tapping would be coming from underneath the Jeep, but with the hood open, it would sound like it was coming from the engine.

    Engine ticking - does ATF oil really work?

    I changed the lifters on my TJ a few months ago and the only way to do it is by removing the head. I don't see how the method you described would work. I'd like to see that cuz it was a boat load of work to do the way I did it.

    Engine ticking - does ATF oil really work?

    Hmmm, I replaced my lifters a few months ago and there was no way to get to them without removing the head. The whole process took me two days. It's pretty involved but not impossible, worth it to not have the ticking (if it bothers you as much as it bothered me). There's plenty of YouTube...

    Well, for those hardcore Corvette fans (I'm a fan too, this is my 5th), I'm gonna upset you. The car still had the original war bonnet yellow, it was in very bad shape and the yellow didn't bother me because with the patina it gave it a gold look. So, chose to go with a bright silver for the new...

    I just took my 71 Stingray to a very small paint shop this weekend for a full color change and some serious body work. I was quoted $2,800 all in, I met with my painter this morning at a PPG dealer and picked out my paint color. Should be done in 2 weeks, if this works out, pretty sure I'll have...
