Here is some info...
http://www.ratwell.com/technical/HydraulicLifters.html Everything i can find on them says 1-2 turns past contact. Been meaning to adjust mine as well, I have not touched them in the last 30,000+ miles of abuse. |

I just put in a '75 "AW" Bus engine in my '70 914 When I went to do the valves there was zero clearance on all them... |

I just put in a '75 "AW" Bus engine in my '70 914 When I went to do the valves there was zero clearance on all them... I know they are in mine because i requested that my engine builder put them in 10 years ago. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I knew a lot less then and did not want to mess with valve adjustments on my daily driver. 10 years later and i still have yet to touch the adjusters on that motor. If you have no clue what is in your motor, look further down on that link under "identification". There is a difference in the pushrods used with the hydo lifters. I don't think the AW engine had them from the factory but i am guessing if you have 0 clearance on all your valves and it is not running like crap someone probably put them in. here is another link with more bus/hydraulic lifter info http://www.type2.com/library/engineg/hydral.htm |
