[QUOTE="meosborn, post: 1077338, member: 19"] Thanks Fred W, it's nice to know I did something good in this process. To add on to your advice, be sure you don't rotate the crank with the CCT slackened. That's what I did to cause my predicament. I'm having a heck of a time with this FIPG that I used on the valve cover. It's Permatex The Right Stuff. It just plain sticks and doesn't want to let go. I'm torn as to if I should use it again. I'm betting it seals great but I'm not sure i want to deal with it again the next time I check the valve clearances. I checked my clearances again tonight and everything is just the same as when I checked before I skipped the tooth. My logic tells me that if any of the valves impacted the piston it would have caused interference with the valve closing all the way and the clearance would be out of spec on the high side. So I'm thinking this should mean that I lucked out and didn't damage them. Does anybody want to make me feel good and second that logic? [/QUOTE]
