2006 Pontiac Grand Prix lifter and rocker noise after repair.

Asked by Ph1l1p25 Jun 24, 2018 at 09:55 AM about the 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix GT

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I recently disassembled down to the lifters because it sounded like the lifter
was making noise. I got down to the lifter and there was no damage on the
lifter or the push rod seating area. I then cleaned and put lubrication on the
parts that i had removed and installed them all back in and torqued the bolts
as needed. after i got it all back together i changed the oil to clean out any
debris that could have fallen in during the repair. started the engine and the
noise was still there but it clears up after a few minutes. The second thing
that i noticed is that the rockers seem to be really loud now i can hear them
all ticking like i do not have oil to them. what could be the cause and solution
to this problem??

Are you thinking that it is having dry starts in the valve train so the stabilizer will help to eliminate that?
