Wow, that made a difference. THANKS! I measured 0.28mm intake and 0.30mm
exhaust. So thatsounds like too loose rather than too tight, on this
side at least.

Just follow those tappet adjustment instructions to tighten up?

Thanks,

guessing that they are too tight as Patrick surmised?

*** Either too tight or you might be on the wrong stroke.
Mark the lower fan belt pulley across from the arrow (2:00 position)
Now rotate the pully clockwise to that point again and see if the valves

are still tight. You want to be in the compression stroke where both
valves are closed (you will be able to wiggle the rocker arms).

Later,
