Nope,  you caught me backwards.   You are correct, adjust 1 & 6 in the example below.

Sorry bout that,

Bill

Bill, I must 'av said it wrong.  Valve #1 gets ADJUSTED because #8 is down (or going down), and valve #6 is ADJUSTED because #3 is down(or going down).  Honestly it seems I may not have to be at the very peak or zenith of the #8 or #3, I think, because, they so rapidly 'fall-off' or change.  Am I still missing something?

None at all because you are only adjusting the closed valves, 8&3.

Sorry for the interlude as I was getting the house painted, but, I am now on the tr 3 again.  And I was adjusting the valves using the 'rule of 9', which seems simple enough.  AT TDC valve no.1 is adjusted because valve 8 is descending, right?  Valve no. 6 is adjusted when valve 3 is open, That is 1+8=9 and 6+3=9, respectively right?  Well, how concerned should I be that valve 8 and valve 3 (in this example) are fully open?
