my 1 litre is very noisy with semi-synthetic vauxhall oil in and the time before i used thicker i know is for old cars but as long sa you take it steady till warm is ok i used duckams 20/50 green stuff and you could hardly hear the tappets this time i put vaux oil in and its noisy so back to duckams ether today or tomorow! | |

never use second tappets, they both and the cam wear into eachother if u kind get the jist of it. if the tappets r noisy only on startup just use a thicker viscosity oil. | |

I recomend that you only adjust your tappets if you know what your doing or you have someone with experience to help. | |

a good oil change with good oil will make them alot quieter, don't buy tappets from a scrappy, wouldn't be worth it really. | |

i think you can get some tappets from down the scrappy or something. a friend of mine had some sort of kit for sorting out his. not sure tho, i wouldn't mind knowing | |

what kind of a job is it to change tappets, i hear em on cold mornings, only really cold like below 1 degree. Will flush and a decent synthetic 10w40 sort it ? |
