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. Zoltan
