Here is easy way to adjust valves on 4 cyl. Remove valve cover and plugs put wrench on crank bolt, rotate engine watch cyl 4 when the exhaust closes and intake starts to open adj. Cyl 1. Then watch cyl 3 wait for valves to rock ex close int open, adj. Cyl2 and so on. Never fails as for Dist rotor check position when cyl 4 rocks and adj cyl 1.
