- hemi 5.7
I have a 2013 Ram with 5.7. I replaced cam and lifters due to the “hemi tick”. The amount of noise was better but not gone. The back passenger side still has a consistent tick. I took it apart and replaced all push rods and rockers with new ones. It still ticked. I just went in and put new lifters in and it still frickin ticks. So i am notably frustrated at this point.
looking at the new lifters that i just took out, the back set had some signs of wear on the shafts where the the front ones were shinny. Is there a possibility of an oiling issue? Idle oil pressure is 26-28 and running speed 42-50.
it is a high milage truck but was not abused. Thanks for any info.
