loud ticking noise from valve cover area.
Wednesday, March 04, 2009 1:51 PM
i was driving through some snow in my driveway it was plowed and some snow froze to my radiator fan and popped a fuse. (same thing happened last year) i didnt buy a fuse yet so i had no fan and i have been watching my temps.. they have stayed fine. i started it one night before i left and let it sit a little too long, i looked back and the needle was pegged.. i instantly shut off car and let it cool. when it got back to operating temps, i started and it felt like it wanted to stall but it stayed started. i drove home and nothing big happened.. i drove to school this morning nothing bad. i went to drive to work after school and it started ticking. very loud. my guess would be rings?
