Tappets. Easy enough to adjust, look in the haynes manual for pics as i dont ave anything here to do a guide on.
Pull the plugs out, pull the rocker cover off, set of feeler guages cannae remember the order of the check. which evers lose, feeler guage in between the rocker and the valve, set it to 10 thou. undo the lock nut and wind it in until its 10thou clearnce, then redo the lock nut. do this on all of them.

I need to do this.
Where do I get feeler guages from? Halfrauds? Good motor shop?

NB - - the incorrect spelling of Halfords is from the actual post and not my amendment. If Admin think I need to take that out let me know.
