    Before you had the valves adjusted was your engine making valve train noise?

    Mine has a rather loud ticking coming from the valve cover area... It's not EGR nut, or low end knock. I'm thinking about taking it in to an isuzu repair shop in Southbend Indiana to get the valves adjusted and timing belt kit done. My truck has 105k on it.

    My beasty had 115000 km on the clock so it was due to have it done. Now that you mention it the motor is a little less "knocky" but now runs great
