Really nice truck! Welcome the site. I to am new here and have learned tons already. Could you tell were to find details on valve adjusiments? I am sure that my 97 has never had the valve cover off and it has 180k on it. KDP had not been addressed yet either. I will be taking care of that this weekend and it might be a good time to check valves at the same time.

Thank you. Here is the site I went off of. I bought a feeler gauge from autozone for 6 bucks.
B Series Valve Adjustment ---AutoMerged DoublePost--- And I believe valve checks/adjustments are done at 24k mile intervals. |
How much lift

Hello everyone, I'm new to the site so please pardon me if I bother with any stupid questions.
I recently picked up a 97 12 valve and have been doing some work to it. When i got it, the valve lash was out of wack so I adjusted it today while my dad was washing his truck next to me. With this, I didn't realize there was a tad bit of over spray on the rocker arms while the valve covers were off. I just did an oil change about 10 miles prior to this event and wiped the oil/water over spray out real good, but should I do another oil change to be safe? or not be so concerned? I checked the dipstick and there are no "water bubbles". Any input would be appreciated. Thanks. Here is the truck; it is a 97 12 valve 5 speed. Few engine mods, few inches of lift on 40s. http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/.../CUMMINS01.jpg |
