The 2.6 engine was running just fine, then at low idle the lifters began to sound off light to medium sound. Not just one but seemed to change from lifter to another. Oil pressure is 3..great. Seems to idle at 1200 rpm not 750. Pleanty of oil in crankcase. 3000 miles since oil change. Just had the water pump and thermostat replaced.

I'm stumped. Can you help me? Blessings
