today i went to fix a nock the i had in the top end of my 95 zuki( i had to change the valve cover gasket anyways) so my friend and i were looking for the sorce of the nocking, and we found a retaining screw for on of the rocker arms unscrewed almost falling off lol the funny bit was that, that little screw was the sorce of my engine nock. after that we put the gasket on and the put everything back together again. the whole thing that we did took us 45 min from start to finish and realy simple. lol
thanks

I'm unsure how exactly the SOHC valve train works (I'm assuming you have a SOHC) but the screws on the rockers are usually used to adjust valve lash. If the screw isn't adjusted to the proper rocker to cam clearance it can cause damage and premature wear. Just wanted to make sure you properly set the lash.
