^^^oil pumps aren't that hard/expensive to change yourself. They take a bit of time, but they aren't THAT bad!
Loud ticking...injectors, lifters, valve-springs, exhaust manifold gasket, harmonic balancer...those are the ones that spring to mind straight away. After that then ANY of the pulleys on the front of the engine, timing chain tensioner...
Since it's heating up, I'd suggest having a look at the water pump too.
Is it louder on one side of the engine than the other, and as Nijell asked, does it get faster and slower with engine speed? |
