If the feed part that sticks into the head is gone than you're out of luck until you get a replacement.
Mine went a 200'ish miles without the supply of oil to the rocker shaft before I bought it and decided to adjust the rockers. Amazingly it has NO grooves warn into it and some how the valley had plenty of oil (maybe splash from the valves/rods).
They're pretty tough! ~J | | |
