help with valve adjustment

scottyb · 03-31-2008, 08:05 PM

2000 carryall turf II XRT has fe350 and I was attempting to set valve lash.
Surprised to find no visible adjustments under the valve cover......
Are these sukkas hydraulic lifter actuated? Or am I just a huge dummy?

First time under the covers on this type of motor so any help is appreciated. Thank you.

According to my manual:

Valve and Clearance Check and adjustment

"No clearance check and no clearance adjustments are required.
The FE350 engine is equiped with hydraulic lifters that
automatically eliminate all clearance in the valve train components."

Thats all there is...word for word
I hope that helps!

(that's new to me... I thought they all had solid lifters!)

Me Too! I Had no idea but, that's COOL !
