So I've been chasing this sewing machine noise in my engine, and according to hours of reading, the most likely cause is that the push rods aren't the proper length. So i ordered two length checkers, and i want to make sure I'm doing this properly.

Step 1: Turn engine over to pump up lifters. (< can i do this step with the starter?)

Step 2: Find TDC for cylinder #1, and remove rocker and push rod.

Step 3: Insert length checker into push rod cavity.

Step 4: Mount rocker.

Step 5: Tighten rocker retaining bolt hand tight (or until rocker starts to tighten on rocker arm? <this is just what i saw in the video)

Step 6: Tighten rocker retaining bolt one half turn. (< setting lash correct?)

Step 7: Tap rocker arm to find if there is any gap over valve spring
-If there is the pushrod is to short.
Loosen length checker until there is no gap

Does this seem about right?
