Hey all. Was on line this morning looking for valve lash specs and ran across some KDP info. Well my truck in a 97 and not wanting to deal with a failure of that type, I ran out and got gaskets and so on, tore the cover off and found my dowel a little past the casting. Pic included. Question is, is it ok to tap it back flush with the casting before I bolt in the retaining tab and is flush far enough in? Thanks!

 

do you have a cummins? if so, hit up the cummins section of the forum, we are gasser guys. but from what i know its quite common for them to work themselves out, and it is safe to drive it back in.

 

Oops, sorry! I thought I was in the right spot! How do I delete this post, can't seem to find where to do it anywhere?

 

I wouldn't worry about deleting it. A mod will most likely fix it.

Thanks dodgeram07, apparently the diesel guys on this forum don't want to reply as I reposted this in the Cummins section.

Appreciate the links!

Another good site I used when I had my Cummins was the "Turbo Diesel Register".
