My first time adjusting valves. 2.5hrs taking my time to adjust and recheck. Used the regular way due to the fact I didn't have a wrench to hold the large nut. All 8 valves were tight. I did have a issue re-installing the valve cover. then found out the cam was in the wrong position not allowing the cover to slide by. once i rotated the motor it went right on.
Seems to start and run smoother.
