I have had the mistress for 2000 miles now so I thought (my first mistake) it was time to adjust the valves, change the plugs, new oil and filter, new air filter etc. I figure I have done valves etc before so would be a piece of cake, and it was or so I thought (my second mistake). When I got it together and fired it up to check my work and adjust my spiffy new cam tension device (thanks Mark) the racket it made was unholy. Much cursing followed and when that was complete I opened it back up and found what follows in the pics. Did she jump time? How badly screwed am I (hoping and crossing fingers and praying I am not)? If she did jump time am I going to be able to fix it without tearing the motor down completely.
Update - figured out what the clatter was - would help if I learned to read the damn the manual and compare it correctly with the shiney new set of feeler gauges I got.
Still need to know if it jumped time though.
