What will stop my engine tapping sound?

One morning, you start the motor of your car as usual, and its sounds like a hammer is tapping on your engine! What's going on, you immediately wonder?

You raise the speed of your motor in hopes of clearing whatever is causing the engine tap, but the tapping sound speeds up and gets a touch louder.

The oil level is full and looks kinda clear honey-like; and you have a 1000 miles to go before an oil change is due.

The big question.

Why is my motor making that tap tap tap sound, and is it a serious problem - and is it costly to fix?

The Answer.

That sound: tap tap tap, is caused by 3 problems:

1-Oil breakdown sludge collecting and blocking oil flow to your $15 a piece, 8 to 24 engine valve lifters - and what you might call miniature hydraulic jacks.

When deprived of oil under pressure, a little piston - the actual lifter, sinks into its bore creating a space between it and your engine valves. The tap noise occurs as each up-cycle space made by the recessed piston slams into the valve it is supposed to be pushing upward. One cause of your tap.

2-Carbon residue from combustion will collect on, and hold open your engine valves, keeping your 8 to 24 $15 apiece valves from closing - allowing, creating a space and the tap noise.

3-Tar-like Sludge on your 8 to 24 valve stems - which can be no more than a film thickness, will slow down your motor's valves snappy and fast closing action - the slowness creating a space - and the tap sound results.

Remedies to end your tap problem.

Since sludge is a cause of the tap, some people buy solvent engine flushes to rinse out their motor in hopes of ending the problem.
This 50 year old method of using solvent based additives only cleans one of the 3 areas causing your problem. And, it has some danger to its practice, as it strips away all lube film on every engine part as it cleans. That's no good, of course. That is often the cause of engine failure a month or so down the road after the use of such part store products. A big seller at parts stores! I wonder why?

Your mechanic will suggest a tear down of the top half of your engine $400, a machining of your engine valves to clean them up and refurbish them $600, a new set of valve lifters $200 or more, and a gasket set $250, as the common remedy. And 2 weeks with no car.
