RE: [DML] Bernie's Ticking

["Jeff Friday" <DeLorean_Type304@xxxxxxx>]

I think it's the rockers making such a racket and possibly coupled with an 
exhaust gasket leak.  Remove the rocker cover and check/adjust valve 
clearance.  Check for a leak in the exhaust gasket.

However, this one sounds particularly bad and I believe it is possible that 
the cams have been rubbed down.  They sound very worn.  If that's the case I 
do not believe a valve adjustment will fix this one...only new cams.
