Diesel Noise

My 1995 124 E300D sounds like the valves need to be adjusted. I can't find any info. from searches I have done. Can anyone direct me to the correct proceedure for adjusting the valves?
Thank You

Hydralic valves are not adjustable.

Try Diesel Purge (i can link you to a how too if needed), a fuel additive such as Redline 85 Diesel Cataylst, checking chain stretch and pump timing, or a different weight oil.

I will try that. I used Rottella only because I have it on hand for other vehicles.
