    valve clearence on gs850g

    Firstly, thanks to all those who responded so rapidly to my previous question and welcoming me to the forum.
    I have decided to cover all of the listed possibilities to solve my problem including the valve clearence.
    Any idea what the valve clearences are for the Gs850g?
    Regards

    Both intakes and exhausts:

    Minimum: .03 mm
    Maximum: .08 mm

    All clearances measured COLD!

      If you are using American feeler gauges, that would be 0.0012" to 0.003".

      Visit the valve adjust page at BassCliff's website to see his tutorial on how to do it.
      Keep in mind that this tutorial is meant to be used along with, not in place of a service manual.

        That's right Mr. Steve. Luckily, there is an 850G service manual there for your downloading pleasure. Warning! It's 155MB in size so it could take days if you're on dial-up. :shock:

        Thank you for your indulgence,
