klr: shim calculations
Posted: Fri Apr 21, 2000 8:40 pm
Hello Listers,
I got my shims out and I'm ready to get replacements! Can someone double
check my math for me? I calculated the following:
Left exhaust: Clearance .005, old shim 270, thus new shim: 255
Right exhaust: Clearance .006, old shim 265, thus new shim: 255
Left intake: Clearance .004, old shim 255, thus new shim: 245
Right intake: Clearance .005, old shim 255, thus new shim: 250
I used the ShimCalc software, which is pretty awesome. I just wanted someone
to confirm my results. Would any of these be too loose?
Thanks,
