Ok guys i might be stupid but i am in the middle of changing my timming belt.
I don't see any way to adjust the valves on mine the cam lobes sit on what i would guess are the lifters. i know mine is a different engine 7afe are they different? i mean in the way the cam is installed but other than replacing the lifters if that is in fact what they are i would not see any way to adjust the valves. Is the 5sfe different in that way? I have yet to experiance the 5s engine......just wondering. -------------------- 94 st
