Well my engine has a knock to it. It only knocks whenever I turn it on and it hasn't been running for a while, and when I'm hitting around 4k RPM. It also does this a little whenever I'm in second gear(automatic tranny) around 3.5k RPM and I'm letting of the throttle. It doesn't knock during idle, or as loud. Does anybody have any ideas? The knocking is coming from where the valve cover is and I want to just take it off and see what I find but I'm a little short on money, so your help is appreciated.

What does anybody now about valve lash. I was reading in the book that you should have your valve shims checked and adjusted. What is the price range for that and what is exactly done. Can this cause knocking or is there anything esle that could cause this.
My timing is fine and I don't think it's that. |
