So I pulled my valve cover to see how everything was and I’m glad I did I saw on the back side of the valve cover that there has been some contact with the rocker arm the po had the valve cover gasket replaced and I don’t know if they had other work done to it. The po was really bad at taking care of it so I wouldn’t be surprised if they messed somthing up. I’m guessing that this is where my lifter noise has been coming from. Does anyone have any ideas on the issue/fix?
