check the mileage, 'round 200,000 miles the timing gear/chain will have a brass bushing and spring loaded tension arm, frequently may get out of whack and a tooth jumps, course by then the motor is drinking oil like a sailor~ inspect the motor, you'll find the major crank/cam association may need a fashion/adjustment~
