I think I found the problem. The ball on the bottom of the valve adjusting screw is gone on one of the valves and noticeably worn on another.

There may be additional problems,  I am going to check the cam lift.

But I'm thinking that the screws started wearing then the process accelerated.

I will post a picture of the the adjusting screws later.

Thanks,

Roger
