Professionally ground and valve job. All is fine except a rattle that sounds like Model T in top end. no misfire... All else got new too T belt, W Pump, seals ect 89 2.0

Gonna test tomorrow. PS Head did sit in shop for a year before I put it in a engine . could the lifters need a soaking?

Sub gear adjustment on the exhaust cam?

 

[Zembonez]

Sounds like a valve adjustment issue.

SOLVED ! Not what you would think

:facepalm: Hello again everyone and thanks Dr J and other suggestions but I FOUND THE ISSUE after reading an older post of Dr. J recommending to Stethiscope around to locate sound...

as noises travel around in the enginnee compartment in weird ways:ugh3:

Thought it was coming from the top end but after taking a long screw driver and placing it around different parts of the engine ( CAREFUL ...Moving Parts ):naughty: and putting the other end up to my ear ...

I found it coming from the FRONT of the engine... Hmmmm after putting alll NEW W Pump, Seals, O Pump and Bearings I figured I got a bad part sent to me and didn't check it before install???

So I proceeded to pull down the front of the engine again and took DR. J's advise on taking off one part at a time and...then starting the engine..(as long as you dont run it too long without water) and see if the noise goes away.

Well step one was to drain the coolant ( Please contain it as this stuff kills many animals a year cause they are attracted to pans left under cars over night and it is sweet yummy drink but gived the worse end over )

I then pulled off the Alt / AC belt and started the engine WAAA LAAAA......NO NOISE :clap:

Good thing I didnt take the remaining parts off as it would have been a waste of time.

I was the AC COMPRESSOR it has no noise but as soon as I put a belt tension on it was amazingly Loud and obvious.

Swapped out the Compressor and drove it home ...Nice And Quiet!


OK V Soda Time and some J Judy :chug::chug:


Funny thing cause when you spin the Clutch Pully
