Valve problem



On my '87 5k, I have a problem, probably with the valves.

When the car is idling, I can feel/hear a "puff" out from the
tailpipe, a lot stronger than the normal exhaust pulses. This
disappears if I rev the engine a bit, but wil re-appear after half a
second at idle. I know that the engine is supposed to have hydraulic
lifters (new some months ago) so I don't really know what's wrong..
:-(

Any suggestions?
