    3.0L valve sounds

    Hello,

    One of my friend has a 91 minivan with 3.0L engine in it. I noticed
    that it has a very bad valve sounds. They hit the head like crazy. Can
    the problem be fixed without removing heads, or should he remove the
    head and machined it. I mean is there some shaft or larger rocker arms
    that can fix the problem without costing lots of money.

    thanks.

    not being able to hear the noise i would say it is probably a bad lifter, if
    so the head does not have to be removed

    Or just as likely a bad valve guide, in which case it DOES need to be
    removed.

    I've had to replace the heads twice on mine - never replaced a lifter.

    I will try to change or clean the lifters. If helps, i save alot of
    time, or next weekend, I will start tearing apart the head.

    what are the specification of the camshaft thickness, or any way if i
    can tell rocker arms are still good.

    Thanks.
