Hi philgervasejr,

Thank you for the donation.

Engine is equipped with hydraulic valve lifters and quite often they are the culprits.

Disconnect related wire harness.
Remove ignition coil and module assembly connectors. Remove attaching bolts and remove coil assembly from camshaft housing by pulling it straight up.
