[QUOTE="saleen97118, post: 16306070, member: 192981"] Ok hear is what I would do 1-lets rule out valve bent,do a compression test on that bank all 4 cylinders(is that same side cam was off 1tooth on cam install?). I would do that After you get your compression test done,now I would test to see my oil pressure at what rpm and make sure oil pressure is good to the valve lash adjusters.dont forget oil pump pump more oil when rpms go up,but at idle less pumping pressure.i would try to test at top of engine head if possable and at oil pressure sensor to.if you blew a timing tensioner you could be loosing oil pressure at idle through that tensioner.when reved up pressure would now supply enough pressure to get oil to top of lash adjusters so noise would stop. I would do this,I have rebuilt 2 engines but they where 99 and did my 97 to.so I'm going to say this (((I have never worked on your engine ok I had to look up to see if it had vvt phasers that could send a tape but you don't have them I guess).
