Arriving home after a hundred mile drive, I noticed a ticking sound that
sounds like the lifters tapping noisily.  The oil level is fine, but the
lifters still are ticking away.  I'm not sure it's the lifters, of course,
but I've heard that sound before and it sounds like it's a good possibility.
I'll be taking it to the mechanic tomorrow, but would like to know what this
might mean.  Please be gentle!
