#297718 I just did mine, on every single adjuster it was already tighter than the correct tolerances, i reset every one to 007"/009", and it sounded worse than before......

Also, when cold i have one single clattering noise from the cylinder head area, which is louder than the rest of the valvetrain noise, which quietens down after warming up, but is definitely still there. My motors only on 68k miles, any ideas??

#302507 if the valves aren't ajusted at all would it cause the motor to skip and go dead?

#342527 hey guys I know this thread is stone dead and buried already but I had my valves reset couple days ago and I don't get the same performance I did before. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Any help would be appreciated thank

#342540 Stickied is the opposite of stone cold and buried I think.

Did you reset the ECU?
Did they tell you what spec they adjusted the valves to?
