help!!!! my heads a shed

Post by tattoo »

can someone tell me what size shim i need as i keep getting different sizes everytime i work it out...

exhaust valve clearance gap(manual specs)...........0.28-0.34mm
feeler gauge gap........................exh 1...0.10mm
exh 2...0.20mm
shim size fitted.......exh 1....1.85mm
exh 2....1.80mm

the inlet clearances are within the 0.13-0.19mm manual specs so don't need doing.

i've already done 2 of my storms but for some reason my heads a blank with this one so any help would be great

exh1 need to go from 0.1 to 0.3 so take 0.2 off shim [1.85-.2=1.65]

exh2 need to go from 0.2 to 0.3mm to take 0.1 off shim [1.80-.1=1.70]
