Subject: Engine noise on startup


Just bought a 1989 900 Turbo 16V S. Did a long motorway journey the other day. Since then, on cold start in the mornings, there is a noise which sounds like tappets for the first few seconds after the engine is started. Sounds like it's coming from the top of the engine. My guess is that the oil is not reaching the noisy parts for the first few seconds, but I'm not very mechanical so I'm not sure. Any suggestions of what I should check? Thanks.
