Hey Rollaclub I just got back into a ke55! When i went over to pick it up from the seller we started it and it just sounded like it was running on 3 cylinders and the engine sounded really loose/ rattly! It drove (with absolutely no power), and we were able to get it home (a 5km downhill drive home). Yesterday I pulled the rocker cover off and saw that on cylinders 1 (intake) and 4 (intake) the pushrods were unseated, hence leaving the valves closed. I had to take the rocker arm off to get them back in, so i have no idea how they came out. I tried setting the valve clearances to spec and they still fell out. Maybe i set the clearances wrong, but could there be another explanation for this? Engine runs better now, but still sounds wrong. any tips? worn cam? valves not retracting well? thanks guys (4kc, solid lifters)
