While removing my Kerry Hunter header to install copper gaskets, I discovered 3 of my 4 passenger side tubes were no longer seated fully. I'm sure for most of us, this is routinely checked, but maybe for some of the less knowledgable, including myself, a good reminder.

I just did this last night.
Exactly as Dave D. says above, but I used a hooked dental pick to pull the ends out until they rest on the tubes. You will hear the "Click". I can get pictures of the process later today as I have to put one set of rockers back in tonight. Stu |
