mdphili Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I installed new heads, turbo, and exhaust. I'm looking for help on the Valve adjustment procedure for a mechanical e7. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51109-1994-e7-valve-adjustment/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomastractorsvc Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Have you adjusted valves before? Not much difference rotate engine and adjust the tag on the motor should have cold valve specs. You can mark the balancer to that may make it easier Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

fjh Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) the valve set marks are on the fly wheel remove the cover plate on the bottom of the housing turn the engine clockwise till you see valve set numbers and a line place the line dead center in the hole firing order 153624 make sure you have overlap on the opposite number cyl in the window 1-6 2-5 3-4 are paired so if your setting 1 you need over lap or tight valves on 6 and so on and usually the valve set lash 16 intake 24 exhaust but changed a tad for some years check valve cover lash is usually on the tag! Good luck Edited September 25, 2017 by fjh Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51109-1994-e7-valve-adjustment/#findComment-380615 Share on other sites More sharing options...
