Had a fun day today.
 
I noticed my car was making a clicking sound coming from under the passenger side valve covers. I was like ah crap! I busted a roller rocker, but when I went to my local parts store and popped the hood/took off the valve covers, it turned out that the bolt was just loose. Yay for it being a minor thing. It turns out I have really strong rocker arms. I was told I could probably shoot them and they would still work. (EPWI is stamped on em and they are a good inch wide and solid).

Have you tried the shooting of them yet? I'd start w/ a small caliber hand gun and work my way up.
Kidding ofcourse, I'm glad that it was a minor problem. You probably should check all of them just incase. It's cheap insurance. What happened to one could happen to the others as well.

Aye, as soon as I noticed one was loose I tried them all.
