rookie tips for adj valves

[mark ward]

Lifting cams slightly: I use a dentist (ouch) pick, to break the oil "seal" start the shims then a magnet (and Or forceps) to lift (slide) them out. and the forceps to replace them. VERY little lifting of the cams that way.

That is also why I didn't pull the cams and timing chain guide ie dismantle the least I can and button it up as fast as possible... Just slightly lift the cams for shimming.
