Engine: (2.6) Hydraulic valve lash adjuster help needed!!
10/27/02 09:29 PM

I just finished installing jet valve eliminators in my '88 2.6L, and now I have a metallic ticking noise that sounds like it tis coming from one of the valves/rockers. If this were a pushrod engine, I'd say it was a stuck lifter. I suspect one of the hydraulic valve lash adjusters, and I need some help with someone more experienced with these engines.
1. are the exhaust and intake lash adjuster different, or all they all the same? A couple of them fell out when I removed the rocker arms, and I might not have put them back in the same rocker arms they cam out of.
2. My Haynes manual mentions bleeding the adjusters, but I can't find any explanation of how to do the bleeding. Could my adjuster have lost its oil/prime?
3. Is there any harm in running the engine with the rocker cover removed to determine for sure which adjuster is ticking?
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
