[QUOTE=pbowler;14328]Thanks G-CPTN, very interesting reading, the rockers are exactly as I remember them, I'd love to hear one running again.[/QUO

It was not unknown for the nuts that secured the rocker arms to work lose but it never seems to cause any damage if it was rectified in time, all I remember doing is re-torqueing them and off they went back on the road again. I was only just 21 when I first got to work on them and used to love the job of taking them back to their home depot on night shifts after they had been serviced during the day. If the driver had reported that the blower pressure was high then it would have had the manifolds off for a de-coke, this meant that when it warmed up you got a firework display out of the exhaust as the rubbish blew out of the engine.
