Subject:      Confused about valve adjustment
Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

ok, so I've pretty much confused myself regarding the procedure for
adjusting valves

Bentley says after adjusting cylinder #1 rotate crankshaft 180 o and adjust
next cylinder.  That puts the rotor 180 o (clockwise) from the notch.

Stan's post in the archives seems to say set #1 and rotate crnakshaft until
rotor is 90 o and then set next cylinder.

Stan's directive actually makes sense...I think..

Can someone clarify this for me??
