[QUOTE="Barney, post: 507896, member: 16117"] Thanks for all your replies. The screw had managed to work its way down the pushrod tube and into the engine sump. I had to remove the tube and use a magnet to retrieve the screw. Replaced the pushrod tube with an adjustable one and drained the oil a few times for good measure. Completed a 450 mile round trip this weekend with no problems. Happy days :D :D :D :D [/QUOTE]
