The top feed water pump clack is letting by a little on my Martin Evans 5" Manor after a lot of use. Can anyone advise as to what the ideal ball lift might be? (3/16" ball). Currently it is about 80 thou.and I think the height adjustment pin has worn. I have had it suggested that it should be nearer 1/64" – 0.0156.

Many thanks
