Re lashing;
If the lashing is neglected, the valve stems wear a rut in the rocker arms. This makes accurate adjustment very difficult. I use feeler gauges that have been cut down to fit in the rut. I've had to remove the rocker arms and re-radius the ends.

My machine shop ground a new radius on mine for $5 each ($60) using a fixture.
