RE: Possible head/valve problem
Update on that motor

Cummins redid the overhead and said I had some valves loose when I did it. Hopefully they’re right and that explains my readings on the detent. They also said number 6 valve cam has micro “spald” wear, I think that means pitting. Said that cam will need to be replaced in a while, friend of mine said just keep an ear on that one and it’ll make noise when it gets worse. I’m still gonna look at it myself to see what it’s like. It burns about a gallon of oil every 10-15k and I’ve added maybe 0.5-1 gals of coolant over the 50k I’ve had it, those numbers ain’t bad from what I can tell.
