Re: Knuckle compression
Hey Keith,
Welcome to The Journal! You say you took the cam chest cover off and a gear (or two?)came off with the cover. Do you take the cover off often? do you know which gears came off?

Fully compressed lifter?
Hello all,
Went to adjust the pushrods on my '74 shovel and the manual says to run the pushrod down till the lifter is completely compressed. What exactly does that mean?They're hydraulic lifters.
