A little update........

I,ve spent the morning working on the car,

Solved the high tickover .......... I had not tightened a bolt that I,ve put into the manifold that originally had a pipe connected to the "frying Pan air filter" or the one going to the Brake servo ( which is no longer there ), so was losing manifold pressure, sorted

Re jigged my throttle cable ( Thanks Spud ), all smooth & free running

I took the rocker cover off whilst the engine was stone cold, I noticed that a couple of the rocker arms were a little on what I thought were loose, checked the bolts, all tight, didn,t go any further,
Ran the engine up to temp, the tapping noise is still there, it seems to come & go to be honest,
I,ll be changing the oil & filter tomorrow so will see if that helps

cheers Spud & Mark...........might be a case I need you both to come & have a look & listen, see what you think ........please

cheers
andy
