I want to replace both rocker arms on cyl 8. Can i just remove them and install the new ones and torque to 20 foot pounds?
Do I have to have the motor at tdc or anything? I have a tick out of that cyl and the only thing I have not checked is that.
I am just unsure if its got a partially opened valve if i can slowly still torque it down?
thx

Just take them off and put them back on, no tdc. I did my injector cups awhile back and took them all off at once. Torque them back and the injector hold down bolt as well and you will be fine.

youll be fine just make sure that the push rods are lined up
