Title: no oil from rocker
Post by: mc54 on October 23, 2008, 07:20:02 AM
Hi all

Have run the engine with the rocker cover off and found one rocker has no oil coming from it. Have blown air through the hole to try and clear the blockage. Some air getting through but not a lot. Does anyone have any ideas, before I take the rocker gear apart.

Regards,
Mike

I have read that post, but my problem isn't oil pressure. There is plenty of oil going to the rockers, it is just the one rocker that is giving me trouble. I was just wondering if there might be something I could try before taking everything apart.

Probably gummed up a little.  It would be a good move to pull the rockers, fully dismantle  and give it a thorough cleaning.  Not a difficult job.
