mitsibishi eclipse camshaft
i have a 1993 mitsibishi eclipse 2.0 non-turbo. i recently broke a timing belt and bent all 8 of the intake valves, so i purchased one from a wrecking yard without the camshaft installed. prior to the camshaft going in, the valves were seated properly. however, once i installed the camshaft, the valves do not seat. my question is, do the valve lash adjusters need to bleed for a period of time before the vaves will seat properly? there is about 1/32 of an inch gap between the valves and where they seat. any help would be very much appreciated. thank you

well since nobody answered my question,i will answer it myself. after about 24 hours of just sitting on my workbench the valves are seating perfect now.the only thing i can conclude is that the auto. valve adjusters blead down ,if anybody knows something i dont about this please feel free to let me know.im just happy they finally seated.
