My Son had a toy steering wheel which he used to spin furiously, making loads of go-faster noises, leaning into all the tight corners, perhaps running the government feels a bit like that. You make all the noises, but when you stop you haven't really gone anywhere.

RE: Rough Running Chevy 350

Hi Andy,

I found out one of the problems I had was sticking lifters (they have been standing a while) I replaced these with slightly uprated ones and adjusted the rockers to set preload as per the book. I have roller tip rockers that seem quite good and my next problem is float level adjustment after finding a wrong gasket fitted to primary metering block and main body (it goes on). The idle is set with the idle adjust stop on part of the mechansim I believe, coupled maybe with mixture adjust but get it some where near right then a rolling road adjustment would be absolutely ideal, does anyone recommend anybody??

Graham

Oil under rocker covers is normal I believe. for lubrication of the valve gear.
