Joe a stick will work just as well and it won't cost you anything. a cut down broom handle works quite well

I hear ya there, but have you used a stethoscope?
You can hear a so clear with one. Well worth the $20 and it is flexable to get into tight spots....

yes, i have when I worked in the industry. If you don't have one and don't have much need for one. It is called improvision as you more than likely have an old broom handle or whatever around. One doesn't have to get out and run down to the nearest tool sales place to buy one that you may never use again .that old piece of broom handle will transmit quite well.
now you can take that 20.00 and go and buy a box of beer that you'll only use once except to pee it out.
cheers

Yeah, that is until the wife goes to use the broom you just cut the handle off of

Sorry couldn't resist

hey, you can't bugger around with their broom handles. How are they going to be able to fly if you shorten up their handle. your supposed to have your own handle (left over from all those stripped out shop brooms).

198plus · 11-03-2009, 11:27 PM

I'm no Ford man but it sounds like a broke valve spring or maybe a bent valve

jgh64pkup · 11-03-2009, 11:36 PM

thats what my dad said its not a broke spring because i took the VC off and looked it over keep the answers coming please

dammitmitchell · 11-04-2009, 01:10 AM

what about rocker adjustment?
is that adjustable on that motor?

**Bugeyev8** · 11-04-2009, 02:00 AM

it sounds like the noise is at valve train speed, have you checked the compression ?? is the engine high mile ? I would assume that it has a bad hydraulic tappet or a broken part in the valve train

jgh64pkup · 11-04-2009, 07:57 PM

nope no adjustment or lifters its SOHC so maybe a bent valve

198plus · 11-04-2009, 11:50 PM

If it wasnt a broke spring, then its a bent valve.

if you cant figure it out, get really good at welding and cut 2 motors in half and weld it up. Use some 4043 and tig it.

jgh64pkup · 11-05-2009, 12:04 AM

i hope so
so your sure its not a rod or wrist pin
i really hope its a bent valve that would be so much cheaper to fix
