Jake brake adjustment

Excellent info rawze. Thank you for clearing this procedure up.

I did exactly what you said here

Do NOT mis-align it, OR Align/ tilt/ or adjust it AWAY from this position FOR ANY REASON!



AFTER the rocker shaft is in place PROPERLY, AND SQUARELY to the flat,... And now your doing the overhead valve adjustment correctly -- As you adjust the engine brake rocker via its set screw to the correct gap ("0.276") with it all the way back, its roller against the cam,... Then put it back into its detent position.

In my short time on the two overheads I did, I checked them with the dial indicator like you did in your "injector replacement video" and they were spot on.

Now I know for next time exactly what I'm checking for. Again thanks
