Open your chiltons or mitchell maunal and check the clearences of the lifter to valve and compare them to the specs in the book. also check to see if there are any wear marks on the top of the valve cover and the rocker itself.<br /><br />Another quick check is the see how much you can wiggle the rocker back and forth. If it goes more than about 1/4" to 3/8" then your rockers might just need to be tigthed and adjusted.<br /><br />JUst a few things that may help you out there man. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>93Stang</b> <br /><small>Member # 4549</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,1,11,2,31,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> thanks man i appreciate the tips <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
