If this had happened to just one cylinder we might wonder whether something had happened to the valve or the seat, but this is just too unlikely to happen to 2 valves at the same time. It's possible that there is space there, but you just don't know where to slip the feeler in, or that when you replaced the adjusters the pushrods slipped down and are no longer in the sockets at the bottome of the rockers. Perhaps the most likely is that your distributor is in there wrong and you're trying to do this at the wrong times. Try setting this up for #2 and #4 and see if the feeler will slip in then. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
