Checking valve clearances
#33
(12-09-2022, 01:14 AM)The ferret_imp Wrote: It's funny but Randy B on this forum iirc had his checked at 8,000 miles by his dealer and 12 of the 16 were supposedly out of adjustment. I have often wondered if his mechanic knew what he was doing, or if they just said that to justify charging him a bunch of money?

I'm at 69,000 miles, no checks or adjustments yet.

Pretty easy to screw up, or 2nd guess due to the angles needed with engine in frame.

Of course when I did mine, it was completely different due to the new cams, everything changed much that I triple checked twice. Wink
