I wouldn't go adjustin your valves if your not familiar with internal engine components. take it somewhere and have it done.

i have the same problem, but it's not the valves. if it's really loud, most likely it is the lifters or the rocker assembly.. whatever that is. i also read something about lost motion assemblies making noise? i don't know, i just learned to live with it. i know my valves are alright 'cause we adjusted them to spec.
