Hi folks. I tried searching this topic but I'm on my phone and I may have missed it. Sorry if this has been covered.
When I start my 94 Capri in the morning, the lifters rattle for a few seconds, and then one keeps tapping at idle. When I accelerate, it stops. When I come back to idle it comes back. My question is, what do I need to do to fix this? The car is due for an oil change.
Also, in the morning I seem to have a little power loss, more like not smooth acceleration or lag in the car pulling. After about 10 minutes it pulls hard (well for a Capri anyway).
Otherwise, the car runs like a champ and does not use a drop I oil or smoke.
Thanks for the advice. I'm a car guy but don't have much experience on these cars. I can work on a VW Bug, so I can do anything! 😁
