did you talk to paul or rick about this -- it does sound like you might have wires crossed after all of this -- or a crack in the cap and it arking over to another cylinder -- jz

Im pretty sure that the rockers are good, i tightened them down to zero or little lash then went 1/2 turn past that and put the set screw down. I have to check it again tomorrow, short of taking the valve cover off with the motor running does anyone have a good rule of thumb to set them?

and i just read that my guess you have the valve adjustment all wrong -- if its a stock cam you can do 1/2 of the motor at a time with a correct explanation do you have a work shop book or are you winging it --???? -- jz
