Title: Valve check
Post by: Timbox2 on June 13, 2016, 06:56:50 AM
Finally got round to checking the clearances, and at 30k miles they are all in spec. Well, Ive actually got 1 exhaust at .21 but I aint gonna bother.  Cam chain looks nice and tight too with plenty left on the tensioner. Gonna need a new cam box seal though, old ones pretty shagged

See my other post;  I just want to push my heap to the back of the garage at the moment and forget about it.  Too many other jobs to do....
