Someone told me that I should have the valves readjusted. Is this something I should do, and if yes, at what mileage should I do it? Thanks. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 |
I would also re-torque the head and adjust the valves (on a fully warmed up engine) 500 miles after a rebuild (this might be unnecessary, but it should not hurt anything).
