One of the symptoms for valves out of adjustment is a louder than normal ticking sound coming from the valvetrain during idle. Someone once told me that it is time to do a valve adjustment when your car starts sounding like a sewing machine.

Here is a great link to a write-up that was done on how to adjust them: http://www.c-speedracing.com/howto/v...lveadjust.html

Also, if you do a search you will find some recent discussions on the subject.

Good luck,

-Floyd
