Default Valve adjustment help

So I need to do a valve adjustment but haven't done one before. Is anyone in the Charlotte area with experience willing to lend a hand?

Thanks,

Matt

Yep, read that and have all the stuff (minus the bent feeler gauge, should be here this week), just don't have any experience feeling the appropriate amount of drag. An experienced hand willing to help learn me on the finer points would be nice to make sure that I don't get it wrong.

My schedule is absolutely ridiculous right now Matt, between work and getting ready to have a baby. However, I do have the bent feeler gauges and the adjustment tool if you want to borrow them. I don't know that I have them time to help you, but I can offer my advice and the tools. Will you be at C&C this weekend? I can bring them do you and do a verbal walk through there. I've done it about 10 times or so on our cars now. The first time is a bit intimidating but once you do all of the valves, you can go back through all of them again and you'll have a good feel for it by then.

Text me or PM me; I'm working 60 hour weeks out of town right now so I'll probably forget to check back here.
