Tappet clearance 0.1 mm for all 4 EX. is that right?

[Guest]

Hi . Before I start changing anything (because I am doing this for first time) I need some help. Few days ago I saw on youtube one popular video about how to check clearance suzuki gs500e. The guy there sais that if clearance for exhaust is about 0.1mm it's no worry to burn valves.I actually don't understand how that is possible.

In service book is clearly 0.03-0.08 mm When I measure Ex. clearance with 0.1 blade it went trough with just bit resistance is that right?(I have highest 0.1 after 0.15 and this want go trough).

	#1	#2	#3	#4
Ex.	0.1	0.1	0.1	0.1
In.	0.08	0.09	0.0	0.07

.1 is okay.

All your clearances look ok other than 3I.

BTW, did you position the cams per the Suzuki method, or did you simply point the cam lobe away from the valve?

I used this manual to point cam. But I have suzuki gs650gl 1982---------

The methodology for all the 8V motors is the same, so your 650 is good

You might want to try swapping the .1 for the 0 one and see what you get

Remember, don't turn the crank with a shim removed
