curious about valve lash setting/check

that's what I meant, it was late for me. do you have any input on why I would have pressure on those 3 valves? intake 5, intake 7, exhaust 7
I'm probably wrong, but my thought was.....those 3 valves may have gotten oil when I started it the other night? but I'm just guessing there.

Yes. You're getting the valve adjustment wrong. Not being smart here, but that's the only possibility.
