Engine noise - anything to be concerned about?
Car has been idling for a few minutes from a cold start. Sounds seem to be coming from passenger side, fuel rail area, possible under cam covers but unsure. Anything you would check out if car sounded like this, or is it pretty normal?

I have had 3 Jags, and have always found several several tappets out of tolerance when first check after purchase.
Once you have done it it is easy, but time consuming.
I have added worksheet, just add your numbers... I used 0 to 1" micrometer to check installed shims, as some markings were not legible.

I measured, then picked up only what was needed at Moss Motors, only 8 miles from my house when I lived in Santa Barbara. If you are lucky some of the removed shims will be just what you need in another location, so you may only have to order 8 or 9 new ones. One weekend for checking, removing, cleaning, and ordering needed shims, valve stem seals, cam cover brass washers, seals & ect.. The next weekend to put back together and double check your work. Check out forum posts on installing leak free cam covers, between weekends.
