this is my zetec engine in my mk2 xr2 basically been haveing this tapping noise for a while,so yesturday i spent all day in the rain taking the tappets out checking them,i found one that i could'nt get one a part at all and one that wouldnt hold oil at all,so i changed these for new ones put it back together and still have this noise any ideas as to wat it could be by the way the engine ran quiet when i first put it in sounds like summats hitting the rocker cover any help would be mucho appreciated |

why is the exhaust smoking? have you checked the timing and tightened the bottom pully up also if you have timed it up was it very stiff to turn over by hand more then usual? if so you may have bent a valve or two that sounds really bad is there any oil left |

Sounds pretty terminal to be honest, is it deffo coming from the head? Done a compression test etc..? |

damn, that founds f00ked, maybe a valve spring has snapped? is it definatly comming from the head? can you feel the pistons knocking or slapping? are all cylinders firing? |
