So I notice this morning I had a serious typo in the title. This engine is a L134 not and F134. I have Jeeps with both engines, and wherever I get talking about the old Flathead I throw that F in there when in fact it is called "L head". The "F head" is for the newer engine with the intake valves in the head and the exhaust valves in the block. Now that my mistake is cleared up, we did make progress after I posted last night.
My son pulled the oil pump and indexed it correctly last night. After that he was able to get the timing better adjusted and the heating problem went away. Just need to recheck the valves and we should be good to go. Everyone has a different feel for setting valves, if you have a preference would it be to have them a little tight or a little loose? Its titled as a 47 CJ2A but who knows what the engine is. Has a willys block and a ford head, and when we ground the valves two of the exhaust had been up-sized to intake seats. So I'm pretty sure its a pieced together engine. But no big deal, even the old mil-spec MB's were pieced during depot overhaul. Head is marked .014" but I have TSB's that say .016".
