Typewriter Tick/ BBQ tick fact compilation?

[Bikeman315]

Ceratec made no change whatsoever.

Then you might not have the BBQ tick. Honestly virtually everyone who has the tick and used Ceratec noticed a significant reduction in it.

Not to scratch an old wound but what puzzles me is why some cars have the tick and others do not? Also why many report after the first oil change?

No one knows. It's one of the universes great unknowns. As my old mentor used to say,"Get over it, it is what it is".

Edit: I need to clarify. Every Coyote has the tick. It's part of the engine. It's the volume that varies. Some are to soft to hear, other are moderate, and finally some are as loud as batshit.

Ford won’t do anything to repair it

Since there is nothing broken there is nothing to repair.

Is there any association with absence of the tick and use of Motorcraft full synthetic? Or is it dumb luck?
