<VV> Engine Noise

[Bob Gilbert]

I can listen to each rocker arm stud and those are quieter than the block 
noise. I put a lifter cleaner, CD2, in and did the valve adjustment after 
running for two weeks. The mechanic readjusted the valves and could not get 
rid of the noise. Just remembered that the fuel pump was changed I will 
check that also.
Thanks for the reply.
