valve lash
 

How would I tighten the rockers down? Isn't it like a 1/4 or 1/2 turn past the point where it stops ticking? Do I have to get each cylinder to TDC? I never should have skipped out of shop class! Please help!

Everything is stock on my 5.0 valvetrain except for Crane Cams 1.6rr, 1.94/1.60 stainless valves and dbl. valve springs.

'91 LX convertible , T-5,Centerforce Dual Friction, FMS adjustable cable w/quadrant, ported/polished/milled E7 heads, 1.6rr, 1.94/1.60 stainless valves, BBK 1 5/8" equal length shorties, 2 1/2" off road H-pipe, Summit 2 1/2" catback, March Performance Pulleys and A/C Eliminator

If your rockers are adjustable, you can set them with the engine running by backing them off until they clatter, and then tighten them 3/4 of a turn after the clattering stops. The engine will sputter for a second. Wait 15 seconds before adjusting the next valve. Repeat until finished.

Take care,
