MMk, well I found out that my LOAD tapping noise was from the valve lashes. Come to find out it was from he entire intake valves on the driver side was empty. So I bleed all of them and the ones on the passenger side. Put everything back together and no noise. I was happy, but not anymore. Next day comes and the noise is back!!!! :evil:


So, I was wondering if anybody can tell me how the oil is feed in to the rockers. Just asking because when I took out the lashes. It was pretty much dried except for the exhaust lashes and all the lashes on the passenger side.

Figured part of my 3rd rod bearing made a home and is clogging. I just had a valve job and clean the heads.......Guess not good enough?



Thanks everybody :-D

I'd be curious what your oil pressure is like. I'd suspect that over a blockage.

Check the other valve cover and see if things are dry or not.

ohh, found out that it was a paint chip or something black and rubbery blocking my channel to the rockers. Appreciate the reply tho. XD Car is pretty much fixed now.
