Subject: Valves clearence HELP
Hi again
Today I adjusted the valve clearence on my 93' RD07 exatly according to my shop manual. All the valve adjusting srews had to be loosened. Especially the exhaust valve on the front cylinder, in fact I could hardly get my feeler gauge between the top of the valve and the rocker arm from the camshaft even when I removed the adjusting srew completely.
After starting the engine it ticked a lot from the valves. This leads to me to think the clearences in my shop manual is wrong :
IN : 0,15 mm
EX : 0,20 mm
Are these values correct ???
Are the torque values for the lock nut important ? I got a torque wrench but it is impossible to use it for the front cylinder exhaust valve :-(
Please help my sick @ ......
