Thread: valve adjustment 302

Tweet

Thestang; If you know what the rockers are, under the valve
covers. Now I'm not trying to be funny Ok. Tighten the big nut
or snugit down lightly. As your tightening it listen for the ticking
to stop also spin the push rod with your finger tips as you tighten it. Go to each one doing this. The push rod should be able to spin
as you tighten each rocker, do this till the ticking go's away or you can't spin the push rod freely, If the engine slows down or starts to drag back that rocker back off or losen it, right away
or you could flatten a lobe on the cam.
This is while the engine is running, Ok
Hope this helps some

P.S. This is for the old style 302.
