Hey Gary,

Glad to hear you've got things sorted out. I don't know what my lash is at. I took Doug's instructions and followed them to a "T" but the engine feels and sounds like it's under load all the time so I don't think the valves are seating properly. Also getting some dieseling that I think is related. I'm going to try your approach and go with .016 to .018 cold lash and see if that works.

Doug's instructions were Zero lash PLUS 1/2 turn, cold.

What do you think?

Stretch
