Valves tapping sound
Sometimes I hear it when the car is going on a slight hill. I'm in the right gear. Example (70mph in 5th). Why does it not have the tapping sound going downhill?
Educate me, what is the cause?
TIA

looks like your engine i knocking , could be bad gas, your timing is off, check these if your valves are off you would be able to hear the at idle

yeah, that's what I was thinking too. I doubt that valves would be noisy only when under a load and not at other times too. I'd check the timing too. When was your last tune-up? Have you ever replaced the fuel filter?
