If your oil level is low there is a chance of air bubbles could be introduced into the oil feed to the lifters, same is true of too much oil. The lifters need to be filled with oil to provide the internal pressures to keep the proper valve train requirements to operate somewhat quietly. What viscosity oil are you using?
