hey guys, Just like to get your advise on my problem, today i bought some upper engine cleaner and after i used it the car started making a knocking sound on the right hand side coming from the rocker covers , seems the buckets are making a louder sound than before , before i drive a fare distance to the mechanic just wanted to get your thoughts on what it could be , and i dont want to drive it if its something major and do more damage , i have attached a short video with the noise , cheers, cam http://smg.photobuck...nt=MOV00099.flv

It happened to mine after usin UEC. Sounds identical. It was eventually some crap from the manifold that got stuck around or near an intake valve causing it to not shut properly. It can good after about half an hour.
