Hi There I hope someone can help. I have a xi and had to replace the inlet valve. When installing I found that even waiting for the bleed down of the lifters i still have no cly pressure. If I back off the 4 retaining bolts I have pressure. I have the push rod marked 3 on the front cly.
Any ideas?

From page 3-20 in the online service manual for the '96-'97 S1...

Table 3-4. Push Rod Selection Table
POSITION COLOR CODE PART NUMBER LENGTH
Exhaust (Front & Rear) 3 Band - Pink17904-89 10.800 in. (274.32 mm).
Intake (Front & Rear) 1 Band - Brown17897-89 10.746 in. (272.95 mm)


Hopefully, someone with access to a service manual for a 101 HP Thunderstorm engine can confirm. Do you have a service manual for your X1?

Blake,
You are correct.
The way I remember it is the pink is sort of like red.
Exhaust is "red hot".
