Dump a pint of Marvel Mystery oil in Pokey, drive it for awhile at
highway speeds and the clacking lifter, will more than likely hush up.

Delilah does this every once in awhile, if I don't drive her every day.

Prior to using the Marvel the lifter clacked all the time.

Give it a shot----pobably will work.
