I adjusted my valves over the weekend (could'nt stand the thoughts of someone else doing it). All of my valves were tight (maybe 3-6 thousands clearance). So I adjusted to specs and now have a bit of valvetrain noise (but not as much as a 400ex). Did anyone else experience a bit of noise after the valve adjustment? Thanks!

 

what are the specs for cold valve adj?

 

Gary,

How do you know when the cam is in the correct position to adjust the valves? Is there an indicator somewhere?

 

hi bash

there should be a tdc mark , if not you should get the piston on tdc on the fireing stroke.
