[QUOTE="Alex VW Heritage, post: 552848, member: 19109"] Have you checked the oil for signs the cam or followers may be failing? with cromo pushrods I have always set them when the engine is on a colling down cycle and set them so I can spin the pushrod but actually with zero gap. theory being that the cromo push rods will not expand as much as the rest of the engine so the gap will only increase when the engine is warm. hope this helps a little and good luck.
