Default Adjusting valves

Hey guys I have a 92 sc400 and its making ticking noises and I assume its the valves how would you adjust these or how much would it cost for a shop?

And also wen I turn off the engine I hear rattling noises in the driver side? Any suggestions?

Anything will help

ticking noise could just be your injectors pulsing. if not it, then cost of adjustments could vary from DIY @ $20 for some good feeler gauges and time, to $300-500 at the shop..

In the manual it will walk you through how to do this with feeler gauges. It will give you tolerances and explain how to get your tolerances back to pay by removing and installing correct factory shims.Download TSRM on your smart phone its a manual on your phone. Had no clue it existed until gerrb introduced me to it.
