The two valves on #8 are way out of adjustment.

how does that happen?


I find that settings like this will work out of adjustment a couple of times before they are tightened perfectly. Vibration, heat cycling... things like that will get you. Then again, a slightly loose adjustment bolt will do it too.

That explains the valve tap, not the oil temps.... what did you learn cutting into the oil filter?
