[QUOTE="buddha93, post: 16679412, member: 6433"] So took the car for a spin over the weekend, not much fanfare, romped on it a few times and later noticed a misfire of sorts with certain throttle postions, but drove fine otherwise. Then I heard the significant tapping under the car, drivers side towards the back. I can say with pretty much 100 percent confidence it's a lash adjuster, no telling which one, but from where's its coming from it's on cylinder 7 or 8. I can't imagine there's an issue with the valve or follower that it's associated with, as I believe the adjuster to be the root cause. Agree or disagree? That said, while looks to be a PITA to perform this work with the engine in the car and getting the valve cover off past the brake booster, anyone done this before? Any thoughts, tips/tricks welcome.
