Well as said i've fired my EB up again for the 1st time in 7 months odd after the spark plug incident. sounded sweet as when i started it but then i gave it just a touch of throttle (1200rpm) and let me say eeesh! seems the lash adjusters are nearly all buggered and there seems to be a timing chain noise but its got new chain, sprockets, guides so on and so forth so im thinking the tensioner isnt giving enough pressure, any one had this before. Also ive heard u can get lash adjuster re build kits, anyone heard of these and do they work if so what they worth. also i have ran it for over 30 min to give the lashes time to bleed up with new oil etc. Any help would be great.

I have the same problem. I tried new lifters but it didnt fix it. Now im thinking worn rocker gear even tho its pretty low kay. Or maybe a oil supply problem to the rocker gear?
