Ok, so we returned on Sunday from a 600 mile trip to Buses of the Corn - no mechanical problems at all - no weird sounds, temp right on, no flickering lights - nothing but smooth sailing.

Same goes for Monday an Tuesday during my daily 40 mile round trip commute to work. All is well.

I get in this mornign and start up the bus and I hear TICK, TICK, TICK, TICK - loud terrible sounding. I turn off the engine and check the oil - all is well (20/50 Castrol changed just before our Corn trip).

lifter tap..my '84 does that if i let it sit for a while...
