Hey everyone!

Alright so i replaced the spark plug wires and the plugs. Sadly, the tapping is still happening.

When i remove the plug wires one by one, while running, the tapping stops when i remove the 4th spark plug wire (last one, closest to the oil). My compression tester should be in tomorrow so i can test compression.

I have done a bit of research and i have found that people will pour/spray MMO and Sea Foam right into where the spark plug is, do you think i should try this to help resolve the issue?

Could the issue stopping after removing the 4th spark plug wire mean that the 4th spark plug provides power to the back valves that are causing a tap?


Thanks for the help and sorry for my ignorance!
