I agree with the 'steemed Mr. Green about finding a new mechanic, but I'd suggest you think about the entire valve train. On my '93 NAS 110 at 115K miles in '94, I had "lifter" noise. The cam and lifter faces were OK, but the lifter hydraulics (internals) were worn so that they wouldn't hold oil - and therefore adjustment onto the pushrod, but I hoped that it wasn't bed enough to cause the noise. The obvious problem was that the rocker arms were very loose on the spindles due to wear. I replaced the rockers and spindles and this helped some, but it took replacing the lifters to entirely get rid of the noise. |
