DebbyM Junior Member D Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 3 Palm Springs California	I have a 51 Chevy 3100 with a 235 in it. Locally, the truck runs smooth with no tapping. On the freeway I get valve tapping. Checked the oil and all is level. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should look for first? D
