To clean valves

What should I use to clean noisy valves ? Is it save for engine to use it .

Noisy valves???? Im sure you mean noisy lifters, if they are noisy the oil
level is either low or the lifters are bad, replace em.

Glenn - If you're going to be that picky about language, then you should
know that they are not called lifters (in the fulcrum vs.
in-line-with-valve-stem position) - they are called "lash adjusters".

alternator a generator, but in the new century they are called
generators. Picky picky picky. 8^)

Noisy valves on a 3.0 acclaim are very likely to be due to worn
guides, from my experience.

 

Relax Bill, I wasnt being picky about language, I took it as the OP was
thinking it was his valves making noise and not knowing it was acually his
lifters (Lash adjusters).

 

I knew what he meant. I'm plenty relaxed. 8^)

Glenn picking on somebody else's imprecise use of language has to be the
funniest thing I've seen in the last 15 minutes. Talk about the pot
calling the kettle black!

 

Hey lite bulb, why do you always shoot off at the mouth and then hide
behind your screen. Is that what you do with your customers when you have a
problem? Run and hide??
Grow up alittle will you.
