Cool how do i clean ep3 lifters?

abstract:

when i start my engine i hear a sort of ticking noise. i went to auto zone and told them about it, and they told me i had to clean my lifters to get rid of the small ticking noise.

the best way to describe the noise in text is to say "tika-tika-tika" over and over again really fast (without any pauses).

question:

how do i clean my lifters?

what other problems could it be?

you dont clean them, you adjust them

i dont know how bad the noise is, but some "ticking" from the cam/valves is normal
