Re: Hydro locked?

Thanks Fishermark, but that came a little late. I went to You Tube and a "Guy" said he usually does a half a turn after zero lash. So thats what I did. I did read that page at one time, but for some reason I could find it when I needed it and now my external hard drive has crashed.

Do I need to put a half a turn on those lifters?

I was out all day yesterday and it ran great, no water in cylinders and no milkshake.

I wouldn't worry about adding the additional half turn. Since it runs good leave well enough alone.

Well I ended up taking the valve cover off and put that half a turn on anyway. It seemed to make it run a little quieter. It seemed to have more power and ran beautifully. Thanks for all you guys help in getting this problem solved.

Thanks to those who responded!
