No offense taken... but what do you do when you adjust valves and come up a ball and adjusting nut short?
How could you crank the engine to blow it up? The starter will turn over untll the motor comes to a dead stop - no more than two revolutions.
JMO of course.....

Ain't exactly crossed this bridge, But here goes: I reckon I'd run madly thru the general shop area, waving my arms, screaming I'm one rocker ball, and one adjusting nut short!!?!!

ops: :lol: Then, I'd get to finding it. But if I didn't know it was in the intake....
Maybe it didn't fall thru the first time the valve opened, It ain't such a stretch to see something not falling thru till, it bounced around the intake some. I've seen weirder, How about you?
