I have a 1993 mazda miata 1.6 manual trans with a ticking/clanking noise coming from my engine the noise does rev up with the rpm stays in rhythm with rpm it is not always present and some days it's extremely loud what could be causing this
This noise you hear is the hydraulic tappets ,there gummed up change the oil and use a cheap diesel/petrol engine oil a 2 second squirt of fairy liquid into the oil filler and leave for a couple of thousand kms then change the oil again and this will clear the gummed up holes allowing the hydraulic tappets to re adjust

i agree it could be,if you havent changed the oil and filter lately do that first using the correct oil grade if that fails let me know then we can go a step further
SOURCE: my 1993 rodeo makes a loud ticking noise until it
That ticking your hearing is most likely a valve lifter or tappet that is dirty or failing.At low RPM the oil pressure is lower, as you increase the engine speed the oil pressure rises; with this the lifter sees more oil pressure too and it fills fully with oil thus the ticking stops. You may be able to fluch the oil system in hopes of cleaning out any debris; my gut says the lifter is beginning to fail and should be replaced. If you have the ability and tools this is something you can do in your garage; pick up a manual and review the procedure before tearing into the engine.
I hope this may have helped,
Tom

Not sure of the motor. Assume you are talking about a BMW E36 (325, 358, 318 etc.) What you are probably describing is a valve tap. Sort of a ticking sound not a bang bang bang right? If this is the case you need to have your valves adjusted. Not really a job for a weekend warrior but a search on the car forums may let you decide if this is a job you want to tackle.

This is probably tappet noise from the top end of the engine. However you should have it looked at quickly as these engines had a severe problem with oil sludging, even when recommended services were done.
This caused all sorts of problems, so see if you can get it fixed before the engine develops something terminal.

This is a 'very' common problem which Ford is aware but chooses more times than not to allow owners to pay for. The site will let you look at the complaints and how some got this problem fixed.
