  1. The oil pressure light will be ON after a stall as there is no oil pressure. The check engine light, also should be on when the engine isn't running. The fact you had to power down then restart, it may have stored something in the PCM that the dealer can retrieve. If the oil pressure light is on when its running, you have a problem, shut it off. Next time you start it, just turn the key on, or push the button without the brake pedal depressed, you should see those two lights on.
  2. Ah, ok. A different sound than a "lifter" type noise. Yes, it could be the cam phasers. I've gone through the SI on the 3.7, and the way the timing chains are set up, there is 1 primary chain and 2 secondary chains that are driven off the intake cams behind the actual phaser itself. I did not notice any odd sounds coming from the motor, when I was looking at a sport several months ago, but I wasn't really listening. No bulletins or messages about it that I can find.
  3. These engine have solid bucket type followers They are adjustable, some slight ticking may be heard under hood, but I wouldn't expect to hear it with the hood shut. The cams have to come out to complete adjustment, as all clearances are measured, then the buckets removed, shims measured and the proper sized shim to set clearance is installed.
