Hi Blake,

I love a mystery!!! If the pushrods are centrally seated(see Bentley
caution) in the lifter and rocker arm, no "adjustments" are necessary. If
anything, an unloaded lifter might open and leak down creating tapping
noises on start up. A lifter would hardly pump itself full during the
procedure you discribed. You say no compression but could you have disturbed
something like the distributor Hall sensor plug?

Regards,  John
