Default Valve issue

Alright boy and girls when its hot out (around 90 or up) and or I use the A/C I can hear the valves tapping....help. Its a 95 with 190,000 on it. I have just started to hear this problem and like i said I hear it when its really hot or when I use the A/C but only when Im about 75% orharder on thethrottle.

Any help would be great,
Matthew

You sure it's not pingin' from cheap *** gas. Maybe a lifter or lifters making noise? Tough to say. GL
