Ticking comes and goes
Right side ticking comes a bit after the car warms up after starting. It accelerates with revs. Turn it off and let it sit a bit and the process repeats. I have brought it to my Indie, awaiting his thoughts. Any thoughts here from this knowledgeable crew ?
thanks much

Thanks Chris , my Indie just chatted with me and says he can hear the tick top and bottom with stethoscope but having a hard time pinpointing. Definitely on the right side , left side quiet. Did JG last oil change. Just holding my wallet and hoping for the best. Saga continues

Just upload a video or sound clip. So far, renn-diagnostic has been quite accurate.
Best case is sticky lifter and worst is bore scoring. Maybe you can try a can of seafoam in the crankcase and then change the oil and oil filter afterwards. What oil are you using?

Pretty good overall , especially when thoroughly warmed up. Have been burning about a 1/2 quart plus t per thousand miles on average. I check by dip stick
