ticking noise after turning off engine

[MACCAA]

those buzzing noise should be the electric motor running to pump oil through the system to cool...

That's the electric water pump,not oil....

you shut down u car too fast..

the valves still running after you shut down you car, tehn u get the cliicking noise, it is normal.

As soon as the crank stops, the valve train stops... Hahahaha...if it was the valves still running, that ticking sound would be the valves bouncing off the crown of the pistons...And that ain't normal!!!

too hot, valve got stuck, then the friction eventually loose and can not hold the valve, it pops back and u got d noise..

Hmmm ... don't think so.

HTF can a valve get "stuck"!It's operated by the camshaft for heavens sake!
I think it would be a good idea to refrain from posting when you don't even know how an engine works,basically.....

I love this thread!

Hahahahahahaha...Went for a drive last night...Came home and heard my engine ticking after I shut it down...Was it the valves sticking to the valve seats then releasing, or did I shut down my engine too fast and the valve train was still spinning over after the crank had stopped...Is this normal??

This idiot apprentice at work we had a few years ago had a (wait for it...) Daihatsu Charade. He was always screwing around with it and basically making a great abortion of it. He was always breaking engine parts and wrecking stuff.

One day he comes into work with the crank cam belt drive pulley. The cast key in it had broken out and it did a heap of valves.

Guess what his thought on the cause of the problem was? "Well, the engine stopped really quickly and because of the rotating force of the cam, when it stopped, the cam kept going and stripped the bottom pulley." I said "WHAT?! Have you got any effing idea at all?" "Yeah, you feel how hard it is to turn the cam by hand, there's a fair bit of force on it." "Ezzy (the guys nick name was ezzy), think about what you just said you moron, wouldn't that mean that the cam would have a lot of drag on it and therefor have very low rotational enertia?"

He also told me one day that he was going to machine his tappet cover down to give it some more compression....
