- 1991 mazda navajo
My 91' navajo is idling rough and i'm going to try the remedies mentioned here but there is also a pinging in 1st and 2nd gear when starting off.It sounds like a bad lifter noise or kind of like the timing is off and its pinging like crazy.Anyone have any ideas what this could be?I'm praying its not lifters that need replacing or a bearing somewhere because i don't want to have to tear into this motor.I just put a clutch in it without a tranny jack or anything and it was a ***** so i'm about sick of bustin knuckles right now.Could this be something easily fixed maybe?Any help would be greatly appreciated. Its got a 4.0L V-6 in it with manual tranny.I also hear a tapping like a lifter when its idling.
