I had a problem with something stuck in the intake valve. I removed the obstruction but then the valve no longer worked. I removed the valve cover today and saw that the rocker for the intake valve had fallen out. I placed the rocker back on but noticed that the lash adjuster is sticking way up higher then any of the other lash adjusters. I tried to bleed it by putting a paper clip in the hole on the top of it but it doesn't go down at all. I pushed the paper clip in and out a few times. Am I bleeding this thing wrong or is this lash adjuster stuck and I need to get a new one?
