Hi from South Korea.
my enfield is 2006 5speed cast iron.
I got push rod noise problem.
noise came from exhaust side.
when I adjust push rod properly (push rod rolling) and then tik tik noise is start when engine heat.
I found topic from here and topic said :
exhaust side is expanded by heat, and then push rod become short. try adjust push rod oversize.
So, I adjust push rod over size slightly, and then tik tik noise is reduce.
(inlet side has no problem not at all)
but as you know I adjust push rod over size, engine lost pressure.(maybe valve is opened slightly)
engine can start but I can feel that torque loss. and I can trample kick starter easily with out decomp.
of course engine heated and expanded enough than push rod length become normal but I`m still worry about
losing engine pressure and push rod bending problem.
is there a any solution for retarding cylinder expansion?
I using Hitchcocks`s brand new cylinder head tuned and 535 barrel kit for now.
Thanks for reading and sorry for my poor English!
