    Valve Checks vs. Adjustment Required Poll

    First valve check at 94K No adjustment. Just doing second check at 150K. All intakes need adjustment. 4 valves at .006 and 4 at .005. Exhaust all ok, middle of range. I am replacing chain guides and cct just because. All cooling hoses while it`s apart.
