One of my buddies said the KA's are prone to valve lash needing adjustment or just needing to be tightened up every once in a while. I know my car is sitting right now because i heard some noise coming from the head around the #1 cylinder exhaust port. Is there a truth to what he was saying?

Good

Well good to hear then. I will be taking the car into the shop tomorrow to get it checked out. Normally I would do it myself and take a peek, but the previous owner of the vehicle has torqued the bolts down really bad on the car... one bolt is completely stripped. So i don't want it to be my headache, and he can fix the stripped screw.
