knocking sound of topets
I have a 89 BMW 750il and the topets are starting to sound, to repair this
do I have to do a top overhaul or just by the rockers? What could be the other problems, I've read that they are self adjusting. |

The only way to find out what else might be wrong is to open the engine up and look. Jim |
