My personal belief is that yer average amateur will have more accurate results setting lash with a non running engine than trying the gauge munching, oil splashing "hot and running " method. I have set lash on " hot and running" 5000 HP marine deisels and 1906 Easthope one lungers...and oh yeah slants. Any method that leaves you with sufficient clearance and a smooth running engine is valid. Lower the idle to 650 RPM and turn up the stereo (pronounced "steer eeee Oh") to Stun. Select "Stroll On" by the YARDBIRDS and sychronize the lifter chatter to the high Hat Cymball in the RaveUp portion of the track. Lower the volume to Loud , raise the idle to 750...replace V/v cover while running..... Part 2: Drive 2 blocks to highway. Drop clutch at 2345 RPM....mash pedal to floor. Check to see if rubber marks on road are any longer than the last 9 times. Keep in mind these vehicles were assembled in Four/Four time. The "right way" is not always the easiest, most precise or even sensible way....thats why Chryco went to hydraulic lifters..... |
