[Roadsters] Tappets

[ljordan704 at netscape.net]

 From 311 site, this is method #2 which I found easier than trying to figure out when valve was closed etc


"With 1/2" ratchet and a large socket put the engine
on top dead center dizzy rotor pointing to #1 spark plug wire cap
position, and adjust #1 rockers, then rotate the crank 180 degrees and
check both rockers on # 3(rotor will be pointing to #3 cap position)
then rotate again 180 degrees which is to the timing mark and adjust #
4 rockers then 180 and adjust #2 rockers. It usually takes 3-4 tries to
get them good enough to quiet down.



Rotor on dizzy will be pointing to 1 3 4 2 as you rotate which is the firing order.



Valves are closed when adjusting via this method."

Anyone have step-by-step instructions on how to adjust tappets on an SPL311
roadster?
