ANOTHER PROBLEM / OIL

Post by Josh Colombo »

You need to change it back to the standard weight oil. I'm assuming
when you say 10/60, you mean 10w-60. That's way to thick. You're most
likely not getting oil flowing to the lifters, and that's where your
tapping is coming from. If the engine calls for the same specs as US
versions for oil. I would run 10w-30 or 10w-40. Follow the owners
manual for oil weights. I would suggest getting some engine flush and
run it through then change the oil, and put the proper viscosity in.
