rb25det S1 Valve adjustment

[ANVIL]

what is the spec and how do I do a valve adjustment on my rb?

[Darius]

They are hydraulic lifters, so there is no valve adjustment. The oil pressure pumps the lifter buckets up to take up the slack between the lifter bucket and cam lobe.

Why do you ask?

bad lifters???

bad lifters???

Common problem. I had 2 motors with bad lifters. Every time I'd heat up the oil......ticky ticky ticky.

still trying to figure out my misfire from this thread:

had someone suggest it to me, and i was pretty sure there was no adjustment, but i just had to ask. also is it possible to have 155ish compression and have a bent valve? i was pretty sure there would be no compression with a bent valve but im just trying every angle to try to figure this out.

If your compression numbers are that good, bent valve is VERY unlikely unless its stuck shut. I am sure that would make one hell of a noise.

thats what i was assuming but im willing to listen to any ideas at this point....

are you running on all 6 cylinders? if you are, probably a turbo seal.
