Just about to do my valve clearances, in the bible it states a range

Intake 0.15-0.19mm (0.006-0.007 in)
Exhaust 0.17 - 0.21mm (0.007-0.008 in)

What did you set them to?

You're probably aware of this thread, but if you're not, it looks to be very useful. :ugeek:

Yeah it was more what to set them too than how to do it

And why does PUK log me out all the time now?
