Anybody know if there are free online manuals for the ozark? Looked a bit for the past few days but havent found anything yet. Really just need the procedure on checking valve clearance but i do like to have a manual to look through.

 

I dont think its out there for free. Not enough demand for it, and suzuki does a good job of squashing pirate versions, unlike some of the others. I did a quick check on ebay...and theres none now.
Heres a generic procedure for checking the valve clearance, it should work for doing the little suzi
valve adjust

 

Thanks for the info. Guess i do have to take the the valve cover off. Boss told me you can adjust them through the inspection plugs located over the valves. cant see how i could do that.

 

Usually the only reason for the covers is to set the valves. You should be able to bend the shim, or feeler stock, to get where it needs to go, by going thru the small openings.
