Default Bad valve adjustmetn from acura ????

I got my valves adjusted from acura about two weeks ago and I noticed that my engine was tapping louder than before the service, when i popped the hood I placed two fingers over each plug wire on the block and applyed some pressure, the third plug to the right of the distributor was vibrating irregularly, and the others seemed fine, do u guys hav any suggestions or any fixes in mind. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanx

the plug vibrating means, that the boot of the wire isn't connected to the spark plug.

fix that problem first.

only if its necessary...why do that when u can just take a look and do a little fix here and there...saves the time....and you learn something new.

thanks for the props dude!
u should hear my car click! hahahaha
does the clicking still click when the car is fully warmed up?
cause valves do expand ect....

if u can't stand the noise, then just take it to the dealership they will
have to fix your problem.
