Im working on an EK sedan at the moment. Whats the torque settings for the rocker gear bolts?
Whats the clearances for the valves?
Thanks Dave

Going from memory 15-20 lb ft
and clearance .008 inlet and .012 exhaust.

Thanks for that. Ive got this time capsule car that has just come in. I cant believe this stuff is still out there and only 10 minutes from where I live (Blue mountains). This old guy went to redo all the brakes 25 years ago. He pulled it all apart and never got the brakes back together. I redid the brakes yesterday and am having trouble with the engine. It doesnt seem to be getting much oil to the top end. There is oil coming out of the pipe that feeds the rockers. I pulled the rocker gear off and cleaned them out. Is something else not right? Im hoping to get it registered next week

Block off the bleeder hole in the nut thingy.

no oil or little oil getting to rockers dismantle rockers from shaft you will find the bushes are that worn at top there is no x oil grooves left to fix fit new bushes or good sh set of rockers

Im figuring the hole is there for a reason although I get what you mean about blocking it off (force more oil to the rocker shaft).
I dont have a book on these. How much wear is acceptable on the rocker bushes?

with rocker removed from shaft there should be oil grooves in bush in an X patern if bush feels smooth cant see any grooves it wont let oil out of hole in shaft

Thanks mate
