The feed for the rockers comes up one of the rocker pillars. Check to make
sure the pillar with the feed hole is over the feed in the head and there
is a corresponding feed in the rocker shaft.

Hello everyone,
I just finished rebuilding my 1275 and all seemed well until I went to
readjust the valves. It seems I am getting very little oil up to the
rocker arm assembly. The front rockers appear to be be getting some oil
but the rear rockers appear to be getting little if any oiling action.
Before I tear the rocker arm assembly apart, can anyone tell me the flow
path of the oil. I thought that after it left the main bearings, it
went to a galley on the side of the block for the lifters and then
through a passage into the rocker shaft. Also, any ideas on what could
be blocking the flow of oil to the rockers.
TIA
Ron
