Not alone again! When I did my first valve adjustment I did the exact same thing....later a member cleared it up for me and explained why....then I got it!

You also want to make sure the cam is pointed in that direction or towards the oilier tube. There was a huge thread about that and the reasons why...with out that debate happening again...don't ask why lol
