Ok, so put your friggen rockers back on the same cylinders you took them off of when the piston is on tc and if you have not committed a sin this week, you may not even have to adjust any of them.  :thumb:

Yeah, about that.....

Because i was in a blind panic

I didn't really pay attention which was which as i was removing them. And i had to loosen most of the adjusters to get them off.  :shrug:

I have expert level experience now taking them on and off, so it shouldn't take me long  :lmao: :lmao:

You've been trying to connect just two wires for an hour and a half now . You should be glad it isn't four wires .
