That's been three years now.  I have worked on it for weeks those days.
Eventually, I set them zero lash.  I was suspecting the releife valve.  The
car got stolen, then found a year later, now it just waits.
Also, the fuel pump stopped buzzing when I turn on the ignition.
That's an other thing I could not fix.
So, it just stands and I don't want to sell because it is a sentimental
property.
