Any forum member personally checked valve clearance?

Or has an owner on the forum changed one or more valve shims? Even if you had a shop perform the check/adjust, what did you find about the clearances at 8000 miles (recommended.)

Any other words of wisdom re this topic?

I did my first check at 48K miles because the valve cover gasket started leaking and needed to be replaced anyway. Everything was still in spec.

This might help. In the how to section: Valve Inspection.

Valves - to check or not to check
