I have had a ticking/knocking sound for awhile on my engine and figure I need to do new hydraulic valve adjusters. Well I just found this video and it is the exact sound mine is making. Some people on youtube are saying spun bearings God I hope not cause I dont want to drive it and dammage the block and it would be damn near a year till I could afford a new engine

Please guys if you have a good idea of the sound let me know.

Those new teddybear wheels have thrown your engine out of balance.

I'd be willing to put money on the timing chain guides being bad.

Oh yeah I lmost forgot, that old mechanics trick of putting a long screwdriver tip up to other parts to locate noise? When I put it up against the two foreward center valve cover bolts on the passenger head the nocking is really loud through it
