I finally got my Barn Find 74 2.0 started up after fixing major oil leaks. Also did a valve adjustment, reset the Dwell and timing. I’m hearing a motor tick during idle? I’m still in the learning phase, so do I have a valve out of adjustment? Is it safe to drive or do I need to address it immediately??

It sounds just like a lifter tick on an old Ford Truck I had. Just wanted to check that I didn’t get a valve too tight??

Does it have hydro lifters on it? Recheck valve adjustment. I'd leak it down if you have the tools, maybe it will give a clue. I had a ticking noise and dropped a valve seat. That was fun.
