Subject: RE:!/2 Turn or 1/4 Turn? by TimAT on 2008/2/26 21:25:39 I've always used 1/4 turn. I set them running too. Back off until they rattle, tighten until they just quit making noise, then 1/4 turn. I've turned hydraulic lifter engines to 7k setting them this way with no problems. The idea is to get the pluner inside the lifter just barely above centered. Too low and they will "pump-up" they can't bleed down fast enough. too high and they bleed too fast and collapse. Setting them running is a bit messy, but the guesswork goes right in the drain too. |
