While doing some valve adjustment, I found that I could not get any
clearance at all in the number 4 exhaust rocker. The pushrod and rocker
look OK. I decided to take the side cover plate off and inspect the
lifters. Lo and Behold! The lifter had a small chip in the outside top
edge. No debris to be found though. (I thought some metal might have
gotten down in the lifter cup and prevented the pushrod from coming down
all the way). While in there, I decided to check the rest of the lifters.
AACKKKK! they all have the little chip! This can't be normal. Is it
serious? Should I replace them?
Confused and still maladjusted,
