Engine valves are clicking constantly. Consumer states clicking is caused by faulty hydraulic lifters, the lifter orifice is too small in the 1995 model. Vehicle does not have oil pressure or has very little while idling, timing chain was replaced, dealer informed consumer to use 0-30 weight oil to correct noise in the valves, however the oil change did not help, engine sounds like a thrashing machine. Tailgate actuator spring was replaced. Window cable mechanism in right front door panel was replaced. Lock on the left rear door would lock, however would have to be unlocked manually.

The engine when at idle starts to make a loud rapping noise from the engine compartment. The noise sounds like faulty lifters within an engine. The noise will continue from idle all the way to approximately 40 mph. After 20 minutes of operation the noise will go away.
