Re: slight ticking after valve adjustment (redpeppers)
One of them is probably too loose. Go back and check them all again (engine cold of course).
First time I did a valve adjustment, same thing happened to me, only it was so bad my car sounded like a diesel engine. Checked all the clearances again and found one exhaust valve to have about .030" clearance. Tightened that down to spec and all was good.
