Hi guys,just having a bit of a think,i have replaced my lifters but still have a good bit of ticky sound coming from one or two of them.What im thinking is the oil passeges in the rocker arms may have some partial blocking cause when i start in the morning it ticks really loudly but after about 15 mins of driving it quietens down a lot.Do i have to take the rocker train apart and clean out the arms or could i get away with undoing the train and folding the arms up and spraying some crc in the oil passages in the arms,cheers.

Had a few mechanics saying put through a bottle of lifter tune up like the Nulon stuff first off before pulling things apart as mines a bit ticky for the first 10 seconds on start.
