[QUOTE="96blak54, post: 1570021, member: 14727"] 15-40 oil weight? Change the oil to 5w-20 synthetic just for shits, see what you get. Modular engine oil weights are set to the lash adjusters..... not bearing clearances, not piston wall clearances and not overhead cam aspects.......lash adjusters are tiny hydraulic actuators and their character changes to the weight of the oil. Thick oil will pump them up off the seats. Try changing the oil and let the oil cycle a few rounds of rpm's to get into the lashers [/QUOTE]
