Because I can't live with the rhythmic rat-a-tat of the valves. I adjusted to .010 but I still get the noise from the back two valve rockers, or at least I think that's where it comes from.
Now that I've got the rocker arm shaft completely off, what do I look for on the individual rocker arms? They all have a face that looks highly polished and rounded, sort of convex. Is that normal?
Also, two of the rocker pedestal studs were loose. Is that normal? I seem to recall being told to put them in "finger tight" and let the torque and nut tightening do the rest. Was that correct, or is there a problem with loose studs. Seriously, I could remove two by hand after removing the rocker arm.
Finally, on two of the rockers I see a small flat spot on the ball fitting "adjuster" that hits and "fits" the tappet rod end. Maybe no big deal there?
