I have taken the engine out of the car. I never could get the valve train noise stopped. I did check the valve lash the other day, doing a go - no go. Lash was right where I put it as a 0.002 larger feeler gauge wouldn't go in any of them. But still the valve train noise.
Then a whole new noise started - I feel it was something deeper in the engine. What little I ran the engine, not over 10 mins., the next 2 days the engine made the noise. Then, on the third day, the new noise went away and I was left with the valve train noise.
So the engine is out and I will start trying to figure out what the issue/issues are.
The oil has been drained - and I didn't/don't see any metal at all in it
