Valve adjustment...

Ok…I’ve recently gotten my head cleaned/valve job and all that stuff…
put the head on yesterday got it all put together…adjusted the valves…and when I started the car…it sounds like the valves are out of adjustment.
I re adjusted the valves and it still sounds the same.

anyone have any idea’s??

was your engine cold or hot? i adj. mine cold once and they ended up being to tight when it warmed up…

cold…according to the manual and 2 ppl I’ve talked to the engine needs to be cold to adjust the valves

Tom, reead over thee teeg tips…marc has a suggestion about a screew driver trick. You aree prollly doing it not at full BTDC.

thanx Max…I’ll try that in the morning.

anyone got any other ideas?

Also if they still stay loud no matter what, try lessening the clearance.
