Clicking Engine Noise?

OK theres this inconsistant clicking noise coming from my engine. It's sometimes there, and it's sometimes not. It's not a knock but it sounds like its coming from under the vc or from the injectors. When I take sharp turns my oil light comes on... is it just that I'm low on oil? I got nothing.

Re: Clicking Engine Noise?

I think the oil light is like you said just low oil.

If you look at my finger location in the picture, I'm pushing down on the back of the rocker arm on the section that rides above the lifter. While pressing, if you feel any movement, you have air in that specific lifter.

Re: Clicking Engine Noise?

add oil and if it goes away your safe but if not check your lifters if not that then you might have a spun bearing
