Adjusting them cold is much easier on the fingers.

Subject: [Healeys] Valve adjustment
Listers,
I am trying to adjust the valves on my 66 BJ8. The valve cover states to
adjust the valves to .12 with the engine hot. This is what I have always done.
I now discover the manual states to adjust the valves to .12 with the engine
cold. I have never done the cold adjustment.
The manual also states to adjust the valves to .15 for competition with the
engine cold.
As usual, I bow to the wisdom of the list. TIA.
Fred,
66 BJ8
