One thing always seems to happen when I read these threads on Pelican. There are always guys who seem to think that they know more than both the engineers who designed the car, and the factory techs who wrote the manuals.

Two things to keep in mind.

A) The engine must be at normal temp for adjustment because of METALLURGY. Adjusting at temp, you are chasing your tale, so to speak. Engines are designed to be assembled and set up at room temp. Therefore, ADJUST them at room temp.

B) No freaking competent auto manufacturer EVER designed an car for which the valves couldn't best be adjusted while the engine wasn't fully in the freaking car!

Reading threads like this, I need a month away from public web boards again.
