Lifter noise is typical of an oil pressure issue, or when oil channels are clogged from infrequent oil changes. You can start by changing the oil and REPLACING THE FILTER. Marvel Mystery Oil or other oil treatments will help clean the oil system and quiet the lifters. If an oil change and crankcase oil additive helps quiet the noise, change your oil every 500 miles for at least 2000 miles, and the lifter noise is likely to stop. Are you getting a CHECK ENGINE light, or an OIL PRESSURE warning? Have ODB codes checked, and be prepared to replace the oil pump or oil pickup tube, especially if the car has over 150,000 miles. Once you have correct the issue, change oil more frequently.

If you mean back floor it has a window seal leak or a bottom plug...Most vehicles have plugs under floor for draining purposes...The plug could be missing or needs to be sealed.....If it is the front floorboard it should be the heater core leaking or plug as well...But normally it is heater core

check to see if you have any brake pads left inside the drum, this can have happened because someone drove with the parking brake on, if everything is ok, then go ahead and adjust the wire to the parking brake, you should start feeling it about 3 click. and in full half way down or so

On the distributor there is a tfi module. It might be going. I think there is a five wire connector.

it works good and goes on and off with the a/c switch.
