My 1954 Truck Operators Manual says: Valve clearance (hot engine) - all engines (??)
intake 0.010"
exhaust 0.020"
My 1954 Chevrolet Truck Shop Manual says: Adjust valve clearances as follows (hot engine):
For 235 Thriftmaster 235 engine
intake: 0.006
exhaust: 0.016
For 1 1/2 & 2 ton trucks(not clear if this is for the 235 Loadmaster or 261 Jobmaster engine)
intake: 0.006
exhaust: 0.020
I use the settings in the shop manual.
The car settings might be different (and the 235 Blue Flame 115 might have different settings than the Blue Flame 125).
