valve train noise
I have a 1989 883 sportster and recently notice a noise coming from the front pushrod /lifter area. It made "rattling " noise for a time and then just went away. Do you think my lifter is going bad or sticking? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
John

How many miles are on the engine? Sounds like a sticky lifter to me if it only happens once in a while.

28,000, should I replace it? Or add an additive?
Thanks
