Subject: Re: Rocker pin survival rate!
Mike, Ray,
I've now had a look at one of the valve assemblies and am a bit wiser. The guide is certainly OK - fully seated and a standard 2 litre guide. But I think you are right that there is inadequate clearance between the valve cap and the guide though it's difficult to measure through the springs on full lift as the pockets are quite deeply recessed. I think I'll try the plasticene pad ploy.
Many thanks for the help, much appreciated,
