    More than likely the valves lash needs adjusting mileage ? 22r and e's are known for there valve train noise even when there set to spec they still tick a little

    22r motors also are known for the timing chain wearing out the plastic guides that sort of hold it in place, once they wear through they start rattling on your cover, if it wears through all the way you've got a problem. Had to do one on my old '84 4wd pickup, not the hardest job to do with a good write up, some beer, and a buddy or two haha. Might want to look into it. Then again it could be a large number of things, that's just the first one that popped into my mind

    agree with above. Valves should do it all the time. My timing chain on 22re was making the noise most of the time.... by the time it was removed there were only 4 teeth on the gear holding the chain on....... got real lucky on that one!!

    My 22re had a busted driver chain guide that made noise, I suggest getting a metal backing guide instead of the cheap plastic ones, hope you don't have to do so much.
