Ok on the KL Motors (I have no experience with the FE3) there are Hydrolic Lash Assister's (Do I have that right?) are basically in the Heads under your Cam Lobes.

The problem most run into is that they make a ticking noise that to those who are not familiar with them can be confused for rod knock etc. Its also very annoying as it can be quite loud.

Now normally you either replaced them (Removing the cams to do so) or tried to clean them. I have never heard of anyone doing this tear down so to me this is great. I normally just run motor flush before every oil change and so far I have been fine. Others have taken them out and soaked them in different chemicals and had good luck.

However this by far is the best way to fix that problem lol.

Light travels faster than sound. That's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
