Just a heads up loc tite your cam sprocket bolts when adjusting valves and ask you tech to make sure they do, i had a tech at a local dealer adjust my valves turns turns out one of the bolts backed out and rubbed on my head cover causing all sorts of metal shavings in the motor. took it to another dealer and they found the problem and said there was no loc tite on the bolt.....

Yeah, this happened to me also. I started hearing something though, like it just "seemed" like it sounded funny. I figured the valves were chattering or something. I opened it up and one of the cam sprocket bolts was finger tight. Luckily i saved it before damage occured. TIGHTEN THEM BOLTS BOYS!
haha :blah: peace
