Did you replace the rocker shaft and rocker arms at the rebuild? Did you replace the valves at the rebuild? Did you replace the cam shaft and tappets? Were the "holes" in the block where the cam runs

Dennis Wilson writes about adjusting valves: I once saw someone adjust the valves on a Sprite, I think it was, WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING. Anyone ever see this before? He claimed he could tell when the

Does anyone know a source for a "valve clearance adjuster"? Suitable for use on a B, if that's pertinent. -- Scott

Sure, it's very showy, and it works because the rockers are mostly disengaged from the valves (depending on your cam timing, of course). But it's a mess. Avoids having to move the car around to get t

Well, I once saw my dad try it on a solid-lifter V8... unfortunately, he tightened the adjusters down too far and bent about half the pushrods he'd just replaced... . I suspect that it's an acquired

My first car in America (back in 1980) was a 1972 Ford Capri, 2000 cc, 4-cylinder. I didn't know much about cars then (probably only a little less than I do now! :-) but enough to know that engines a

I can't stay quiet any longer. So here's my two cents worth. As a kid in the 60's, I hung out in my fathers repair shop and any time we adjusted valves, there were a couple rules: 1) Do the adjustmen

Why can't people RTFM? If the manual says to adjust the valves cold, I can guaranfuckingtee there's a reason. If you hang out with me, or Sam Sjogren, or (I think) Scott Fisher and see us adjust our

You were probably watching your father adjust GM (probably Chevy) hydraulic lifters, which are adjusted warm with the engine running. For the last 15 years, 3 of which I spent working in a garage, al
