If it's a solid lifter engine you just need to adjust it. There are multiple threads on here on valve adjustment.
If it's a hydraulic motor you could have a bad lifter or worse.

Hello, one of my rocker arms is clattering, I think I have a stuck lifter, all the other 11 rocker arms are fine, can someone please guide me in the right direction in solving this issue. Thanks again Pat |

Search this forum for lifter adjustment--- -- pop the valve cover off & idle the motor--- check the movement of your rocker gear-- you'll have it purring in no time, Lawrence |

Buy a valve cover gasket and then pull-off the valve cover and adjust the valve lash. The SL6 offered in 1970 has adjustable (mechanical) lifters / lash and those need occasional adjustment. DD |
