Y-Guys:     Reed & I cranked my new engine last nite, every thing went well,           

             no evil noises but, several of the rocker nuts are backing off. I bought

             the.003 over ones from Mr. Schuman, but for some reason, they will

             "start" into the rocker and then they try to pull the threads out. I've

             gotten one to work(Vern told me to use them on the most "worn"

              rockers only)

                Does anyone have a suggestion(S) or????? I've got a set with the Lock

            nuts on them but, they're a pain to adjust!

                                                   Thx

I've had the same problem with the oversized ones, they just won't go without tearing up the rocker.  You can try smashing the threads on the adjuster a little this has worked in the past if they aren't too bad.

Every time Tim sees me with a ballpeen hammer in hand, he asks "adjusters loose again"?
