My Ka just got back from the machine shop and i got what sounds like valve chatter, so im guessing to much valve lash? it runs fine just makes a little too much noise for my liking. it quiets down a little while driving but is very distinct when at idle. so could this also be the timing chain rattle? so really just trying to get different ideas on here.
