If the car can be given a clean bill of health and the tapping problem solved I would be very interested in this...

the only time the engine missed a beat was a couple if weeks back when the AFM went on it, it has now been replaced and as b4 runs fine. engine conversion was done by myself but engine wasnt seen running b4 i got it and it was tapping when i put it in, tried numerous oil changes still no better. engine has been in bout 2 months.
i was gonna have the engine rebuilt but then i already had my new car therefore trying to sell corsa as i cant afford to run both

not at a proper garage and im sure they would need to start stripping it down b4 they would know for sure.
i have been told its top end prob the lifters need cleaning or replacing
