97 Civic Ex D16Y8. ticking.tapping
hello, i have a d16y8 v-tec. my engine has a annoying tapping noise. it hasnt hurt the performance of the car i dont think. but its annoying me as well as makin me worry. i believe the car is also pinging when i have a load on the engine. i do not beat the car or race it around. so i dont think its from abuse. there is 155000 miles on the car. so someone please help. thank you

my moms car is doing the same thing, however she drives a pontiac, it can be same issue. take off the valve cover and see if its clean. my moms is all gunked up from burnt up oil so the valves are rattling like crazy, start from there.
