I have about 20 minutes runtime on my new engine, just changed the oil for the first time today.
The oil had a few very small metal shavings in it, all stuck to the magnetic oil drain plug.
I started the engine after the oil and filter change and noticed a ticking noise on the driver side, sounds like a loose rocker.
I adjusted the rockers during the engine build: zero lash plus half a turn. these are hyd roller lifters.
I assume it's normal that I have to adjust the rockers again after the first 20-30 minutes runtime ???
