1995 GMC C1500 5.7 Engine Tick

Asked by Dalton Mar 20, 2021 at 09:08 PM about the 1995 GMC Sierra C/K 1500

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 1995 C1500 with a 350. It has recently developed a ticking sound. It
can be heard right when it starts up then goes away. Comes back when it is
fully warmed up. Good oil pressure, no excessive smoke or performance
issues. I am thinking it may be a lifter issue. Thoughts?

I would try changing oil more often which may clean up the varnish in the engine.
