Valve Adjustment Help - Puhleeze??
OK. So forgive me. My background is Bowtie. This is my first Mustang. You could call that a redemeing quality, couldn't you?
The motor I just finished rebuilding is finally running. But loudly due mostly to valve train noise. It's a stock 200ci, '65 model. When I assembled the motor, I ran each piston to TDC, then adjusted the hydraulics to the point where there wasn't any play in the rocker arm. The car starts and runs! Yeah! But I'm wondering how to adjust the valves since the adjustment stud is in the rocker arm end. Because of my previous experience, I'm used to adjusting these things while they're running. But I don't know how to keep a socket on the arm while it's moving up and down. I feel like an idiot. HELP!!!!!!!! As Always........... W |
