I am having difficulty trying to adjust the valve on #6 rocker on my "78 MGB. I have replaced the rocker itself, but it is still noisy. Something I have tried is to slide a feeler gauge into the gap while the engine is running. That quiets it to a normal level. Could it be a worn valve, tappet, cam lobe? The big question is whether I should pull the head at this point to investigate further? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Sam _______________________________________________ Mgs@autox.team.net Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Suggested annual donation $12.75 Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Forums: http://www.team.net/forums Unsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/mgs/mharc@autox.team.net |
