Hello,

Just wondering if the rockers can be adjusted, not sure if they can like normal ones on other engines with a spanner and allen key as such. Mine just sound a bit noisy, so i was starting to think they may need a tighten up

Umm ... There are no rockers . We have shim over buckets and the cams are straight onto those .

Modern engines these , not old school pushrod engines , hehe .

So leaves the question of, what on earth would be making the sound of a loose rocker arm :\

Broken valve spring ?

You can still adjust them , you have to measure the clearance , and then re-shim to suit .

1. Low oil pressure.
2. Incorrect shim tolerance between cam and shim causing a tapping noise.
