Re: need valve adjustment specs for 1979 ford f-250 6 cyl
Did u soak the lifters in oil 1st before installing them? if they are pumped up u bring that cylinder u are adjusting up on compression stroke, then adjust rocker to zero lash and then 1/2 more turn of the adjusting nut.
emisionwiz,
thank you very much for your answer. i appreciate ur help and i feel like an idiot for asking but this is my first time around and i really don't want to mess this up but am i to have the engine running or off when i adjust and do i back it off a 1/2 turn or tighten it down 1/2 turn after zero? thank you so much again.
Whoa! This is a Ford, you better check this out. I believe these rockers are just plain non-adjustable torque them down slowly till they bottom, and they don't recommend you soak them anymore. Which engine is it?
Could be wrong, but you have to be sure.
