Temps below 70 degrees ,I get a engine clatter(like a tappet) in am. goes away in 20 sec. seems to be temp sensitive. the colder it is the longer the chatter lasts. I live in southern FL. It is usually only happens in am and once for the day. It stopped for a week after my reg oil change and then began again.
