I have a flat tappet aftermarket cam in my cummins puller. I set the valves one cylinder at a time as I go through the firing order. (Going off the harmonic balancer.) These readings are consistent with each other every time. Out of curiosity I watched an exhaust on another cylinder as I bared the engine over. Based with my eyes the exhaust became fully open (Meaning I was far away from any valve overlap.) I then checked the intake, it was .008 loose after my previous way of measuring. I checked the others in the same fashion, they were all .006 to .010 loose. Does any one have an explanation? thanks
