I have a 1.8 that the po swiched to hydraulic lifters, what's involved in switching back to solid. Engine runs good just starts up and runs loud if I let it sit for a few days.Would rather deal with adjusting valves then hear that noise one more time. Thanks in advance!!!

Have you adjusted the lifters? A misnomer is that once adjusted they never need adjusting again, but that's not true. If you haven't done so already, get the lifters pumped up and readjust. It may shorten the amount of time it takes for that clacking noise to go away.
