Are the lifters adjustable on the 5.9 liter engine?

Q: check the tag under the hood. i think the gap is .035. yep. till its snug and then nudge it a tad. hows that for an exact measurement bg if the plugs use a tapered crush washer finger-tight then 1/2-turn. if they use a flat sealing washer finger-tight then 1/16-1/8 of a turn. if you go with the champions i always liked the truck plugs #4071 myself... copper core - little bit better construction plus they look cool in black they use a tapered washer. .

wrote all instructions ive seen re usage of the mopar cc cleaner say to pull the air tube off the tb and spray in the entire contents of the can letting the engine load up but not die. okay... what air tube they surely dont mean the big oval air inlet tube to the air cleaner on top of the tb do they do i remove the air cleaner assy and just spray directly into the tb while trying to hold an idle pointers appreciated thanks i take the air cleaner off the throttle body warm the engine up and keep the engine idling by hand while spraying directly into the throttle body. just as you empty the can leave the engine die. dont worry there wont be a mosquito around when you start it back up. g denny this is kinda a silly thing to do. believe it or not your engine efficency is actually higher with deposits in there due to a higher effective cr ratio. you could use better gas and see some mpg and performance increases or try to clean it out and lower effective cr and keep using that 87 octane sewer gas. -- posted using the http//www.autoforumz.com interface at authors request articles individually checked for conformance to usenet standards topic url http//www.autoforumz.com/dodge-combustion-chamber-cleaner-ftopict137876.html visit topic url to contact author reg. reqd. report abuse http//www.autoforumz.com/eform.phpp=668159 .
