Ya, the Slobber Can can make a huge mess.

Behind the ECM is the lifter cover.

 

The truck has 170,000. I bought it with 135,000. Would it be worth it to do an overhead adjustment on the truck.

 

Overhead adjustment? Are you refering to a valve adjustment?

 

Adjust the valve lash, is that what you mean? If so, it won't hurt. You probably won't find them out by much.

 

AAAAH, two great minds thinking alike.

 

Yeah. I figured as much. My findings are that a little makes a big difference. Maybe not power wise but idle and response will be greatly improved. I'm just thinkingif I take the rocker cover off and I'm there already. So is there a rocker cover and valve cover.

 

There is a rocker arm cover, that is on top of everything. On the side of the engine, behind the ECM, is the lifter cover.

 

That makes sense. I was clearly confused with the lifter cover. Work on big motors. This is my first little dodge. How big of a pain is it to get to the lifter cover?

 

I've never done it before, but have have heard it isn't a good time. ECM comes off, and I believe the Injection pump as well.
