Hey, any ideas what this noise is? I think it has been happening for a while, but has gotten louder in the past couple of days. I've heard that it could be the solid lifters tapping, but I just want to make sure it isn't something super serious. I am running 10W-40 conventional and I have 2000 miles until the next oil change. My engine has been rebuilt by Toyota and has just under 70,000 miles on it. I rebuilt the tranny and it has 9000 miles on it. Here is a link for a video.

It is hard to judge 4 lb of pressure, but it seems like more than the 6 mm allowance.
