Re: PUSH ROD (tappits)

not worked on a wbx engine so guess work.the van does about 2 mile to work and 2 mile back ..do you think i need to take it out and thrash it.just had an oil change and new filter I would say yes, but your pre load has been messed with, and should be reset by the book first how do you reset them ?
