So after having an extremely hard time finding a place to do my valve adjustment on my schedule and for a reasonable price I decided I'd tackle this myself. I went out and bought everything I needed and spent about $90 in tools (decided to buy NEW Craftsman feeler Gauges so I knew they were spot on). Went through the whole process which for my first time took about 8 hours all together. No one around my area "trades" out shims anymore so I found a place that sold them for $5 each and I needed all 16. If you've ever done a valve adjustment you'll be able to tell what's in the following pictures. My problem is after replacing the shims, all my EX clearances are still out of spec! What did I do wrong? Going to try this again this weekend but for now it's wayyyyyyyyy better then it was before lol. Thanks in advance...
