Sounds like the rocker arm has grime locking up the adjustment. Or the rocker arm or lost motion assembly has failed somehow. Can you post a video?'95 D15 B8
At TDC #1 intake valve I've backed-off the adjustment screw as far as can go and I still can not squeeze in the .008 feeler gauge.
Anyone know what might be wrong?
Probobly zero. depends on what state the valve is in on #1 at that point. If there is any tension on the valve, clearance will be pretty close to 0.Yeah, I'll post a photo tomorrow.
I just replaced the valve-stem seals, and then decided to adjust the valves after re-installing the rocker-arm assembly -- that's when I ran into this problem.
Suppose for a moment I have #4 at the TDC on the compression stroke instead of the #1 -- what would the valve clearance on #1 be in that situation?
#1 cylinder is closest to the timing belt.Zero is what I got on #1. IDK, maybe I have #4 instead of #1 on TDC compression by mistake.
