Is there an underbonnet decal that indicates valve lash measurement and tolerance ??? (A pic would be great !!!). Another thread I found indicates that there is, but no photo.

Much discussion on the engine building forum about the clearance and tolerance.....and no factory reference for the tolerance +/- ????

Thanks
John

Not seen one under the bonnet but certainly a sticker 'round back under the engine hood.

No pic...but there are MANY threads 'round here that show it....

Best,

Doyle

Nice job,gtc!!! Talk about a direct answer. I didn't think to post the actual"part".

[jcge]

Thanks for your responses....specifically looking for an OEM decal inclusive of tolerance (eg 0.1mm +/- 0.02mm or 0.004"+/- 0.001") which may or may not exist !!!!!

[Oh Haha]

The one that gtc posted is the only one that was placed on the car.

The tolerances would be found in the work shop manuals.

There's a photo posted by 2.7Racer from an '87 in this post, but I can't view images in that directory (damned TrustedSource/McAfee software !!!) - could someone please re-upload to the current image directory ?

Thanks
John

[Oh Haha]

my apologies. I didn't see that. It is for an 87.

Perfect - many thanks Wayne

Just like mine!

...weird how they use the "comma"......?

the "comma" is European convention for a "decimal point"......for whatever reason we do the opposite....
