Clacking Tacoma

I have a 2000 Tacoma 4x4 that has developed a clacking when the weather is cold out. If the truck has been allowed to cool and it is cool outside, the engine clacks for 30 seconds or so and then goes away. Under the same conditions but with a warmer air temperature there is no clacking (that I can hear). My guess is that this is the result of a sticky valve. Does this diagnoses sound right? I'm hoping that the fix for this is rather easy. Any thoughts/advice?

John

FWIW The truck has 110,000 miles and I change the oil religiously every 3000 miles
