ticking problems

Intrepid95 12 March 2005 07:15:28
 Hi! I have a 95 intrepid 3.3L v6 with 233,000 km on it. I change my
oil regularly and I have one problem. It started about 3 months ago.
When i turn on the car when the engne is cool everything is working
fine. When i start to move and engine heats up juss a lil, at my first
stop sign, when i stop i hear the engine is "knocking" or
"ticking". As Irev the engine juss a lil the ticking increases i.e
faster, and the more i rev the faster it ticks. My first assumption
was that fuel injector cleaning might be needed. There fore i bougt
pennzoil fuel injector cleaner and haven’t applied it yet. My q is...
Is it worth trying to clean the fuel injection system, or is there a
known cause for this problem? All your answers are appriciated, Thanx.

 Possibly the Timing Chain?

Fuel injector cleaner is a waste, save you money. Sounds to me like you
have an internal engine noise

no its not an internal engine problem i listend to where the sound was
its beyond the engine ... as for timing belt not chain, i doubt thats
the prob bc it doesnt tick when the car is cold only when its
warm...and it goes away when i drive it for longer periods.

It's likely that it's just lifter noise, which isn't something to worry about very much. It can become more
noticeable in cold weather while the engine is still cold. Using a good synthetic oil (e.g. Mobil 1 or
Valvoline) and / or a good oil filter with decent anti-drainback valve (e.g. Purolator One) may help.

 The 3.3L uses a timing chain. The 3.5L uses a timing belt. Not sure what
your reference below was intended to convey, but just wanted to make sure
that you know the 3.3L has a chain, not a belt. Good luck finding he source
of the noise.

 with the 3.3 there was some issues with a rocker shaft mount breaking under the
valve cover but that ticking noise was for the most part there all the time
unless it's starting to crack now take it in now have it looked at. it may save
some coin for you
