[Fock347]

so the other day my valve started ticking. i new i should have checked the lifters!! or maby it was cus i forgot to set it to tdc when i tightend the rocker box on not shure any insight would be great

it only starts to tick when it warms upn. i was reading on other forums on harley motors and it can be the lifters and or most liky from my ******* not setting it to tdc when putting the rocker boxes back on.

set them to tdc it kind of important, lol. If I remember I was thinking that we didn't have to do valve adjustments, but that sounds really strange!
