    a bad lifter/cam is a serious deal. wiping a lifter puts alot of hard iron particles up on the cylinder walls cutting up bores and imbeding iron in pistons skirts

    I have not noticed any metal particles in the oil when it was changed and if its a lifter I hope its a internal part,I cant get the lifter to make any noise when driving around here and can go a couple hours without any noise but when I got to Florida its noisy by the time I get there.
