just seeing for references, If you have a bent valve or slightly bent valve, is it possible to adjust the valve clearance to make the tapping quiet or less quiet than before?

 

if your valve was bent you would know it..

a simple valve adjustment will do.. take it to a honda dealership preferably

 

pouring automatic transmission fluid works for minor valve tap, like a 1/4 of a quart (worked for my 00 LS). if you don't trust that, the other option you have is that adjustment

 

well no ****.. but yall didnt read what i asked.. i asked if it was to be bent (just a hair) woould there be any way to make it not sound like its bent?

 

, ur right. to my knowledge, besides replacement? no. ur kinda stuck with that noise until you change it out.
