We slept in like teenagers today. We did not get out if bed until 8:45!
We watched the F1 race then I went to the garage. The valve adjustment is done. I took it for a test drive and all seems fine.
I need to watch a pro sometime do a 85 911 valve adjustment in 3 hours. It took me that long to get the valve covers back on and the spark plugs back in and hooked up.
My wife came out in the garage just as I was doing the hardest part. Getting the back clips on the air cleaner box. I told her that it is like mating with the 911. I have to lube up my arm with soapy water and cram it in the very tight hole that is next to the air box. Lube is vital.
I managed to get all four clips back on. I need a 10 year old boy with strong fingers to get his arm in there and flip the clips for me. Without a doubt the hardest part if the valve adjustment.
