Default Lifter tick? Ever see the documentary about this 'tard?

"Man whose arms exploded". It was just sick.

Switch to 5W-40 if you want to stick with Amsoil.

Default Did running a thicker oil solve your problem?

How many miles does your engine have .. You could have possibly mechaniclly overreved it on a downshift or upshift into the wrong gear :P
