i have a 2001 saxo vtr, and have just replaced the head gasket. after refitting camshaft and retentioned timing belt when hand rotating camshaft i noticed the 3rd valve/rockerarm? from the left is pinging up in a rapid movement. all other valves working as they should be. it didnt do this yesterday. please help!!

It only follows the profile of the cam and can not ping unless it is sticking then releasing under the valve spring pressure. Don't worry, long as the timing is right you can't go wrong,
