Tell you what, if you contact Mitsubishi parts @ Tuggereh or Gosford during the week and get a price and maybe order/buy part# MB991477 (tappet adjustment tool).
Then I will help you do your tappets next weekend or the weekend after and you can pay me by giving me the adjustment tool, then I can also help others later with the same issues
You can also then look at my quick release at the same time.
What ya rekon?
BTW I adjusted 4 different tappet sets last week so I'm all warmed up

Also depends on the availability of the adjustment tool

Went out to ZFL45H1s' dads house today and helped ZFL45H1 adjust his tappets. Awsome property overlooking a ginormous valley of the Wattagan mountains.
Got there at 9:15am and ZFL45H1 had already started pulling the top of the engine apart. His dad grinded one of my deep sockets into a tappet adjustment tool, then I got started on the tappets @ 12:00 and finished them @ 2:00pm. ZFL45H1 then put the engine back together while I scavanged through his wrecking FTO and grabbed plenty of spare parts . Job was finished @ 4:00pm and the engine started without anymore tappet noises .
Great day and thanks to ZFL45H1 for the parts and ZFL45H1s' dad for supplying KFC and Jack Daniels and Coke premix cans .
