on the right cylinder the second rocker arm is loose and hits the first one the rest of the rocker arms are tight and do not hit each other. I put somw old leaded gas in the tank and have had this problem ever since. I removed the gas and changed oil but have this problem.

Do you hear a constant "ticking" noise? Loose rocker arm sounds like a collapsed lifter.
