V6 valve clearance adjustment
Posted: Thu Jun 15, 2006 7:27 pm
i have a 2.0l v6 vit and it has one noisey tappet that quietens down once vehicle is at operating temp(a good 5kms)
Are the tappets a shim type adjustment,or are they hydrolic?,maybe i could remove them clean in petrol perhaps?(like the ealy gsr lancers with their tappet issues)
As i have noticed if vehicle not driven for a week it has a very rough idle for about 30 secs until oil pressure is up.vehicle has 200000kms on it 20,000 are mine and it get an oil flush treatment every change.
any help would be appreciated,thanks Scott
