Your 1981 model has hydraulic lifters, so there's no valve adjustment to check!

| Post subject: | Guidance for valve adjustment |
This weekend I am going to replace my leaking valve cover gasket and thought that I would take a look at the valve adjustment. I thought that I would ask for any tips or tricks that you may have. 1981 Ram 150 with about 130,000 miles. I have some knock when going up hill but not burning oil. I am planning on checking my head bolt torque's while I am in there. Oh what is the best way for me to keep my carb nuts from backing off? I have tightened them twice in the last 6 months. Just a random question there. Thanks, |

Loctite should do the trick. |
