Thanks to everyone for their input. Sounds like it should be reasonable to proceed...
Bruce, thanks for the input. I am suprised the clearance is as high as it is, when warm. You would think that the optimum would be much smaller, or close to nil, when warm.
Eagledriver... I am suprised you could tell the difference between .004 and .006... seems both would be within range...
The previous owner did the valves recently, and when I started the adjustment, I could not get the .004 guide into the gap, suggesting it was in fact tighter than that...
Last question, Is there a range for the gap that is suggested, rather than just .004? I would assume .002-.004 in either direction is within the error range?
