So, I finally had a chance to look at my valve clearance (Keith said it sounded like I had a loose valve). Popped off the left side valve cover and well now don't that beat all, the lock nut for the #2 intake valve was lying at the bottom of the cover! Needless to say it was loose as all getout. All the others were fine, with #3 and 4 intake a little on the loose side. Tighten those locknuts good! All valves are now at .004 on the intakes, .006 on the exhaust. Just a reminder to everyone to lube their front axles if you haven't done so this year. It needs to be done to keep our precious front ends intact. Those parts are hard to replace. I make a point of doing it every fall. Cheers!
