Check that the hole at the pushrod end of each rocker arm is open and after that inspect the pushrods for the cracks and other signs of heavy wear, roll each over the flat surface, to check their bend. To reinstall, coat the lower end of each pushrod lightly with clean engine oil or moly-base grease, then return each one to its former position, being certain that it makes bottom in the lifter socket. Moly-base grease shall be put on the ends of the valve stem and the upper end of the push rod as well as at the rocker arm shaft.
