Lifter tick while accelerating V70-XC70 1998

Lifter tick is now completely gone. With the windows down, I no longer hear the lifter sound at all. Before this test, I could visibly see varnish on the cam lobes, but now the lobes are shiny and clean. I also picked up 2 more MPG around town, for some of the best gas mileage ever.

I am going to continue using it for the next 500 miles and then change the oil back to Mobil 1 5W-30. I am also going to try running this through my Amazon next. Kreen is a great product and for $14 plus shipping, it completely fixed the problem.
