HAHAHA! > > same wrenches - sweet. Remember, it takes an engine about eight hours after it's been shut down before it reaches room temp! Even running it for 20-30 sec will warm the engine enough to prevent proper, even adjustment. If you expect temps to go below zero (F) the intake valve clearance needs to change from 0.004" to 0.006" (that's 0.10 mm to 0.15 mm).
