Just got my new piston and cam installed and all back together, however when I start the engine with the throttle up around 4500 rpms to keep oil pressure to the new piston and rings, there is a fairly strong clicking/ticking noise!!
This led me to believe the timing chain was off but when rolling the quad in gear at the top of the piston stroke the timing chain gear mark is aligned directly with the head mark, which should be correct???
It's as the piston goes down that I hear a small tick, it sounds very minor when just rolling by hand
I didn't take apart the valves or rocker shafts or anything so all of that should be in spec, correct???
What else can it be? First timer here, please help if you can...
