RE: Ticky lifters |

Lanati cam & lifters, Hydrolic. The springs are what came on the Edelbrock heads. Harlen-Sharp roller tip rockers. The adjustment nut did not back off. I just got in it one day and it was ticking. The longer I drove it that day the louder it got . I readjusted all of them on the offending side by bumping the engine until the distributor was pointing at one of the plug wires to one of the cylinders on that side. I then went to that cylinder's rockers, making sure they were even first, and readjusted them by taking all the up and down slack out of the push rods. Then, I turned them 1/2 turn more. Most of the tick went away but it still goes "tick". This tick is not constant anymore but it is smooth then "tick" about every so many revolutions. Once I turned them all about 1full turn in and it went away but got scared a redid them in fear of flattening the cam and Mr. Tick is back but only every so many revolutions. I will redo them and let you know how it comes out. |
