    Steve, I wish you had had your camera with you! :-D

      It's not the camera, it's the spreadsheet that helps with valve adjustment. 8-[

      Nothing spectacular about the adjustment, you can see one basically like it on BassCliff's website.

        Yes, BassCliff's web site does have a great walk through on valve adjustment. Unfortunately it was just a little short of detail for me. It is one of those things I need my hand held through the entire process. After the first time through, I will be able to do it forever on my own. That's just how I learn I guess.
