Found this in my v2, what is it?

it was stuck in my intake valve cover. it has threads, and at the in the end it has a notch. i never ran the v2, just put it on, turned the motor ovrer by hand to find out that my stock yx piston doesnt clear. what do u guys think it is. i cant figure it out. its not the tapped adjuster, both are still in the head.

Busted tappet adjuster. Used head? Somebody not telling you something about it's past?

Re: Found this in my v2, what is it?

If the valves hit, there IS something wrong, either it has a s25 cam, or something broken.

a V2 will clear the stock pitson with the supplied cam

Re: Found this in my v2, what is it?

I have seen this happen many times, when the nut comes loose and is ran , the adjuster backs out , hits the cover enough times and breaks, the owner loses power , sees the problem and fixes it, most find all the parts before running it.

Re: Found this in my v2, what is it?

just to clarify, the rocker adjuster is the adjuster at the top of the valve spring right?

an s25 will be close , some have cleared some will not??,

IF both of your adjusters are there, this was from an earlier failure and somehow it finally came to a head (pun intended)

yes, and they both should have the tops with the slot in them.
