Subject:      Rocker Bolts
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

I have an 82 Vanagon 2.0L Type 4.

I was wondering if you all know what size nut I need for the studs that hold the rockers in place on the head? I noticed the shaft looks a little tapered, is this correct? I thought I picked up the right nuts tonight, but they are just a little loose. I'm hoping I won't have to pull the head again and take it in to compare bolts.

I have successfully replaced my dead piston and two jugs - without removing the engine and it was a pain. (don't ask.) I have the head back on and am looking forward to getting it running again!

Thanks! Jeremy
