Adjusting Hudson Valves
-
I'm curious if it's possible to adjust the valves on a 262 while it's running. I've adjusted these many times, but I've only done it cold, and can't really imagine doing it while running (which is really the best time to be certain of valve lash). Seems like your hands and wrists would be burned beyond recognition by the time you finished!

Guess what? Yes,You are right on both points It aint easy.

It's the only way to go, but wear gloves! Recently did a 262 in a '47 ... even more of a challenge ... not as much room to work, but still do-able.
