Want to check and adjust your valve clearance? Here's how.

So, the other day I heard a weird noise coming from my engine. Shut it off, contemplated suicide, but then pulled my sh*t together and decided to investigate. Is it rod knock? piston slap? valve clatter? or something else entirely? Well, I won't know until I rule them out one by one.

I decided with to start with the simple and least expensive possible cause which is valve noise due to valve clearance (valve lash) being out of adjustment. I had a machine shop set up my valve clearance according to the numbers I gave them, but I never checked them.

So I took off my cam covers, got my feeler gauge and measured my valve clearances. All were within spec, which is kinda sad as it means I will probably have to dig deeper to uncover the culprit behind my engine noise.

Stay tuned for more videos.
