Hi Frank,
Don't know where Dave in Denver went, but what you describe is what I have. So far, my solution is to run the lifter up on the lobe so I can get my 1/2" wrench on the flat sided lifter and run the nut up or down a little bit with my 7/16" wrench, and then get the lifter back on the bottom of the cam lobe to get a fresh reading. Surely there is a better way! If not, how do I figure out how much of a turn on the nut results in how much change?
Thanks for your help.
Sam
