explain sticky cam?

if by sticky cams you mean like, valve tick or something, yes and no. the tick is from incorrect valve lash from a clogged oil passage in the rocker arm. But my cars been running fine for 50,000 miles with slight valve tick.

but if you mean, you took off the valve cover, and the oil on the cam was sticky, you might want an oil change. that shit just wont lube.
