Okay tune up 101.

Two ways to adjust the valves.  One is to find a rocker at its lowest point, add to get 9, and adjust that roccker.  So valve number one is down, adjust number 8 to .010.

The other way described in my maintenance book is to find "the point of rock" for two valves same cylinder, and then adjust them both.  

Why do I seem to remember that second one is wrong somehow.  

Uhm, beyond that I'm riddled with brain holes, I mean.
