They might even have slipped out of place. Feel where they fit in the bottom end of the rocker arms. Do they feel like they are in place, just like the others? You could also just unbolt the rocker shaft and pull it off. Then you could check the rocker arms to make sure they are all free moving. While the rockers are off, pull the pushrods out, one at a time, and just casually inspect them. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
