The OBSERVED Valve Clearance thread

[tod.branko_imp]

That sounds like a good idea,these are small threads on the bolts, easy to "scre--" them up, just forgot to mention i used a tube of adhesive, makes forming a bead easy.

Another sidenote; there is no need to take the spark plugs out and the way they sit in the cooling cavity it is very easy to drop some accumulated grit into the cylinder, once inside it can do some damage inside, just something to be aware of.

Do you mean I can remove the valve cover without removing the spark plugs? That's actually pretty neat because those spark plugs are so touchy and not very accessible
