Problem with lash closing up

ss3011 · 03-04-2020, 09:51 PM

Today we were running an engine on the dyno . We broke in the engine , and afterwards re-lashed the valves hot . Ran a few more pulls and decided to check the lash again , and one of the cylinders had closed up .003" . The initial valve lash was done using the Honda valve lash method which has worked well for me for many years . Has anyone else had problems like this ? These are shaft rockers , with solid flat tappets . Thanks for any help and ideas .
