well im just about out of ideas as to what could be causing the clap. my engine started acting up. it started to get hotter than normal(shot up to 180) and i let it cool off and restarted the boat with no problems and idled back in bc i was clapping at higher rpms. today i pulled the valve covers and and pulled the pushrods which were all straight. the rocker arms were tight too. bolted everything back together and fired the engine. it was much quieter but still a little bit of noise. any ideas? stuck valve maybe?
