great night... terrible morning... what a hangover

Dan Brady's FTH (for the hangover)

the morning was somewhat ok, as i awoke to a strange man who had decided that at 2am, a taxi ride from east perth to ellenbrook was a good idea and so was my spare room!

hope you've got your keys sorted out dude!

hahaha wtf? Wasn't too bad of a night :) You should have a birthday more often.

*mental note to find a gf for next similar event so I can get pissed too & not have to drive*

keys are a long story the short version is - dan gave me his keys randomly and you shouldnt give your keys to drunk people. :)

hmmm no i think if dan had birthdays more often we would be not very healthy people! No amount of McDonalds and sleep on Saturday made me feel any better.

hmmm

beer

vodka

champagne

bourbon

at the end of the night i was still standing and kept my dinner ...... just.

Not a bad effort ....but not one im going to repeat anytime soon thats for sure!

I remember one bit of the night - LAUREN GO GET US SOME DAN BRADY's we all yell. throw money at her and she comes back with a bottle of champagne, bulk red bull cans and some pint glasses.....and thats where the memory fades out.....

.....until we found a soggy kebab i'd left on Kat's front seat the next morning!

    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?  
    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts
