RE:    What I think I would do first thing is to adjust the rocker's so the lifters ain't banging, then do the Dick Danger private eye on the
rapping noise.

In later Vanagons, mines a 1985 1.9l gas, do you EVER have to adjust these hydralic valves?

I've been driving my vanagon for years, alittle noise at 1st or with old oil, but with that 2 remedies all "appears" OK.  Should I check
my clearances due to van's high mileage....?????

Thanks for your thoughts....
