    Try some thicker oil. Sometimes a clicking sound can be caused by running too thin of an oil in an air-cooler.

    People I've talked to have recommended at least 10w40 in all air-cooled 4-strokes, or even 10w50.

    The rockers in the Ytm/ BW motors develop flat spots on the rockers, nothing to worry about.

    Yep. every ytm I have heard has the ticking problem, it's not worth the hassle of replacing them.
