Current on BAT, decided to ask here rather than there since I don't want to interfere with the auction as I'm not a potential buyer.

Valve adjustment off?

Def sounds like valve train needs adjustment. Or maybe it has hydraylic lifters and it needs to run a while to pump them up.

Tdskip. I may know of a really nice car that just needs TLC. Might be a better option? Pm what your looking for.
