Do I need to check valve lash?...

Just wondering if I need to check valve lash when I put my injectors back in. I just set the intake and exhaust valve lash about 5000 miles ago, but just decided to take out the injectors to clean them. Will it change if I have kept all the parts to their original locations, (rockers, etc). Should be the same right? Within spec?

i just did my injectors, and asked that question, everyone seems to think yes, you should adjust. i need to get that barring tool, so I can adjust mine.

You can likely turn the motor backwards via the alternator pully, and get by without the barring tool.
