Adjusting them cold is much easier on the fingers.

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
