Rocker Arm w/Oil Squirt Hole

Post by N1478D »

On page 33 of the Overhaul Manual it states to be certain that the rocker arm with the oil squirt hole at the top of the foot is in the exhaust position and the rocker arm without the oil squirt hole is in the intake position. It appears that both of the rocker arms have an oil squirt hole! Has this been a change? Or, am I looking at the wrong hole?

Joe most people have changed where both rockers have the oil squirt hole in them. If you have only 6 with and 6 without be sure to use the ones with on the exhaust valve. if you don't have six with holes be sure you get at them Ron
