Default Adjust Valve Timing?

I want to know how do I adjust the valve timing.
REASON: When my car is on, there's some what of a clicking noise with every rotation. My car has been running like this for a while and my brother says i have to adjust the valve timing.

Not too sure about this, but was wondering if I could do this at home or if I have to take it to a shop to do it.

doesnt sound like timing to me. sounds like your valve clearances may be off. take off the valve cover and use those feeler gauges. i had that problem as well with the ticking and that fixed my problem. you can do it yourself if you want but it takes a while if you havent done it before. make sure you check your clearences with the manual. search google and you can find all the info you need, im not at home or i would give you the links i found. good luck and if you want me to send you the links shoot me an email and i get them to you.

sweet, i'll check back on this situation.

Yeah, i tried to search but it's weird how I can't find anything.

Oh btw, it isn't some loud clicking, it's a very minor clicking, it just almost sounds like a normal engine running. i can tell it doesn't sound like a fresh stock motor would. I know it sounds confusing, but it's my first time.
