First I'd put a manual oil pressure gauge on it to verify it's holding proper pressure. If it passes the test it could be as simple as a collapsed oil filter or possibly a bad lifter.

    Hi have I have done a few oil changes and flushes but doesn't make a difference. I just want to know how low oil pressure can be a posible cause of this noise, and how would you do a manual pressure check?

Are you sure that the spring side of the thermostat is toured the engine/ look for a bleeder near the top highest spot in a line or hose that may be able to release the air it may even be near the water pump side.on some water pumps for the ford's the pumps will bolt on and look almost the same but the fins on the impeller are the opposite.clock wise instead of counter clock wise or vice vars. you my wont to check with your parts supply store to see if that is possible.hope this helps give you some ideas.feel free to ask again if you would like any further assistance.thank you for asking fixya .

0.08 inch for intake and 0.1 for exhaust to ensure optimal engine performance, if the valve clearance is too tight the valve might fail to close and cause misfire due to loss of compression. Excessive valve clearance will cause engine noise and rapid wear of working parts.

We have just put a new head in mazda bravo 2.5 td and we have just installed new thermostat and flushed radiator and it still heats up quickly on steep hills and rapidly cools back down on flat going

dear friend-it sounds like you are having a circulation problem,when the engine has reached normal working temp feel the two radiator hoses they should be the same heat,also check the water pump to see if the impeller is not loose,it is not to say that the radiator is clean after a flush,it must be opened to clean.
