So I have this noise I'm trying to pin down.. Warmed up engine is silent.. From starting to idle to red line no noise... Over night cold start quite until a few seconds after starting light tapping... Drive through apartment complex just light tapping.. First rev to 2500 loud tapping for a couple seconds then boom gone and everything is silent.. Runs normal.. Had a look at guides a few thousand miles so e and looked perfect....

Because if they are original still, they were made with plastic. It depends on how badly the plastic may be cracked? Mine had fine cracks, but my guides were trashed and I only had a slight rowel at idle. Simply removing the valve covers for inspection will help you determine your situation.

We'll see tomorrow morning but I think that took care of it.. Replaced the bushings went to work but turned down the radio and listened.. Huh sounds like power steering.. Get to work which is a short drive.. Check power steering and the level is low.. The part of the drive when it would make sound is right out side my apartment so still cold and aggressive up hill
