[quote="mightymolinekid"](quoted from post at 15:27:57 01/15/13) Southeast Wisconsin to be specific. Its a Moline diesel, they are designed for the pistons to come to zero deck. I have a question. I have valve contact with .012" lash now, how would putty on top of the piston tell me how deep the relief needs to be? Wouldn't it just mash it out when the valve hits? When I say contact, I mean it gets tight against the top of the piston when I roll it over by hand, I took the valve spring off and checked. I don't know much about the finer points of engine building, I had left that up to the shop, trusting their knowledge. Now I'm going to learn all I can, which I wish I'd done in the first place. Where is your shop located? How exactly do I figure out what I need for clearance? Thanks for the input and any help.[/quote. When it was first put together the squiahed puddy would have been the only indicator of piston to valve touching and or how much it wasnt touching

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
