    push rod info

    i put a head on a spare 5 and when i went to replace the push rods they weren't fitting to well, so had to loosen the indiviaual retianing srews on the timing rail, but some of them although tight now are no where near the rods, what have i done and how do i fix it?

    ross, you do know that when youve changed a head gasket you always have to reset the valve clearances!

    refer to the haynes manual for how to adjust the valve clearances if you dont already know.

    its easy, its goes like this =

    no#1 open/ adjust no#8
