Long shot here, but what's the quality of the fuel, and how long has
it been in there?<br>

That is the very first thing we did, and it has been rechecked
each of the times we have had this engine apart. I have used
Rislone in it in the begining and oil was new when I got it and
have changed the oil and filter twice in the few hours of run
time it has seen.

lifters. I had an Isuzu trooper with the 3.5 L engine and
these engines were notorious for developing sticking lifters.
Noise sounds very familiar and why I am guessing that.<br>

If I am right,It is harmless but annoying. There are some
techniques for minimizing this. I used to control it with
seafoam in the engine oil right before an oil change - maybe
100 miles or so. Then using a high-quality synthetic. In
addition I made very frequent oil changes.<br>
