 Hi All,

I'm in the midst of adjusting the valves on my 1958 TR3A and have run into a
snag.  They all adjusted fine till I got to #8 where there is no gap and no
turning of the screw will give me any.  I checked compression (for some
reason) and there's 150 PSI in all 4 cylinders.  I pulled the rocker shaft and
the rocker and push rod look normal compared with all the others.  I put a
straight edge across all the valve springs and they're all the same height.

Any insights would be much appreciated.
