Easy question (Hopefully -_-)
Ok a few weeks ago i took my rocker assembly off to put the seals under them so oil dont leak in my spark plugs anymore. I followed the steps from.. cb7tuner i think it was.. there website had it a DIY thing.
When my brother and i were at the part where u gotta put the gap of .. i bleive its 0.12 for the exahust side. for the rocker arms i belive they are called (i dont know all the car terms yet im still leanring) and we did the first three from right to left (if your looking at the firewall and glass front window) and the very last one my brother didnt really touch and im like hey u forgot one and he says "no i never touched that one" and i said yes we did and he would keep on insisting he didn ttouch it so i just finally droped it. After we put everything back together car started up great and has been running great ever sense..
From the 3 we did when u move the rockers they have a little play but the last one did not.. I was wondering if there should be play in all of them or what.. and if i should go back and do all the gaps again.
Again car has been running very good sense no problems sense (2 weeks mabey.. dotn know the exact time) but i have only driven it mabey a full 90 miles so i was wondering if this i\s one of those problems if everything seems great and thne at 500 miles everything starts to blow up! *not litterally*
anyways questions are. Should there be play in all the gaps when i move the rockers up and down.. or what.. Im not gonna drive it until i know.. its an easy fix for me if i have to go back and do it, its no problem.

All the rockers will not be loose at the same time. It depends which valves are open, and which are closed. If the valve is open, even a little, the rocker will not be loose. That's why the crank (engine) has to be turned to a certain position, to set the valves.
