Question Hi!! Am new here!! 2000 Mustang V6
Hi!! Just bought a used 2000 v6 137000 mi on it. Have been hearing ticking noises when accelerating. I think its the lifters. Was wondering if anyone knows how much this will cost me . Thankyou!!

Keep the oil changed. You might run an additive designed to clean out lifters just before you change the oil.

Do what is called 'pull the codes.' You may be just hearing arching spark plug wires.

Any reputable auto parts store, Advance Autozone or O'Reillys will do this for free.

Let us know what you find out.

It could just be fuel injectors ticking.

make sure your header bolts are tight, the tick is probably just an exhaust leak
good luck & welcome to AFM

Could be a Header leak...I've had it before. otherwise Seafoam works well at cleaning up your motor from ticks and other things.
