Rick,

For Buick/Rover engine it will be the same as Chevy (not sure about Ford). Se this link for more info:

I have, in the past, helped a noisy/sticking lifter with STP oil treatment.

Hi everybody,

I have some intermittent valve noize, ticking sound and want to check the
rocker arm clearance when the push rod is on the back of the cam. Is there a
guide that I can use to know when certain pushrods are on the back of the cam
to avoid taking off the valley pan? Something like with #1 at TDC, you can
check the valves on #1,4,7, with #2 at TDC, you can check #2,5,8, etc.?

Cheers,

Rick
