:welcome2:
Tapping or knocking noise?? 2 very different sounds and 2 very different causes...if its tappets a good engine flush followed by fresh oil and then same again after a couple of thousand miles...if its knocking could be big end bearings....find a good engine to swap or have yours reconditioned...lots of work but satisfying when its done.
Put your location in your post.....someone close to you will prob pop along to have a listen to you...may have to bribe them with custard creams or bourbons.
