Hold both parts together in the best fit position and look for the missing
material. B That has the opportunity of floating round the engine so assess
how you are going to deal with that. B A special clean up, fresh oil, leave it
for the filter, magnetic drain plug? B Your decision. B Best scenario - no
gaps in the break line.
Great hear a solution has been found that could have

.. and the adjuster screw is hollow and necked, it
takes oil from the rocker arm and channels it to the top of the pushrod is
