Setting valve lash on an 911 engine (.004) and the lock nut is out all the way to the bottom of the screwdriver slot (2-3 threads left).
Is this normal? |

Mark - this was over on the Bird board today: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/911-engine-...t-adjuster.html
I don't know if that is the definitive answer or not....I don't have experience with the 6 but I thought I'd mention it anyway. |

I'd say its time for new longer length pushrods but I'm not sure many would get the joke.

I'm thinking these cams have been reground with a smaller base circle.

Have your rockers or maybe just that rocker been resurfaced ? Have your valve stems been re-surfaced ?
As suggested, swap it to another valve and put one of your other rockers on that valve. See what happens. |
