Default engine noise

okay, when i turn my car on. i hear clicking noise, mostly by the valve cover
coming from the motor. my friends say its the valves going up and down.
but when i compare it to my other friends GSR, SI there clicking is
not as loud as mine. they dont know whats up either, but the car drives fine
does it mean i have to adjust my valves,
or am i just peranoid

1998 GSR
64,000 miles on it

Have you ever adjusted your valves? You should have already done it a couple times at least.

The injectors make some noise, too. Make sure your noise isn't coming from the injectors. If it's really coming from under the valve cover, then adjust your valves. It's not hard to do.

both, its most likely your valves making all the racket and you're also paranoid... but neither are that bad, adjust your valves and quit trippin' y0!*
