i've been trying to come up with a fix for this but i haven't found one yet. from what i saw when i took my rocker assembly apart is that my adjustamnet screws are worn in 3 or 4 different directions so i think replacing the adjustamnet screws will solve the problem. also i've heard that the sound is caused by worn valve guides.
