Massey 1135 valve specs

Determined

Well-known Member
Going to look at a friends 1135 next week.
He claims one valve is noisy and wants me to set them for him.
Anybody off hand know the clearance intake/exhaust, hot/cold
The motor was supposed to have been redone about 6 years ago and he says it has made noise ever since.
The tractor has basically been parked since the motor was done and only has a few hours on it.
I am not holding my breath that all it needs is setting but time will tell.
Cam, bent pushrod, broken spring, sticking guide, broken rocker arm ???
Are any of these common problems on this motor?
 
Thank you Dieseltech
I drove out and checked the tractor today and the settings were all over the house on it.
Two rockers were set so tight it took over half a turn to get any clearance at all.
Three others forty thou plus of slop.
Runs like a watch now.
The story I got today was the guy that did the rings and bearings knew what he was doing but only got as far as putting the head on.
Friends neighbor finished putting it together and from the sounds of it he just bolted on the rocker shaft and slapped on the valve cover.
