Yes.  WBX lifters are strange animals.  Sometimes I leave me van sitting for
3 days and the lifters will rattle, other times I'll leave it for 3 weeks
and they'll be stone quiet.  Sometimes I think it depends on the position of
the camshaft when you turn your motor off.

Cheers,

Jeff

If I don't drive my 87 syncro for a week or so the lifters click till
she's warmed up and sometime more so.  Is this normal for these
beasts??
