Wayne,
I have a few Landies myself, btw.
I have been most successful by using a Go-NoGo technique.
If the clearance should be .015" then a .014: will "Go" and
a .016" will "No-Go". Eliminates the "feel" factor. First engine I
ever tried adjusting running was my 60 109 and I looked like an
Alaskan seal after the Valdez. Never again, and no need to,
Peter C.
