[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1344307, member: 3828"] 1st valve check was supposed to have happened at 26k miles. I do mine on the 25k's as it's easier to keep track of that way. In all likelihood the check would not have resulted in a need to reshim anything. As you can see in the [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/111697-valve-checks-vs-adjustment-required-poll/"]valve check vs. adjust poll[/URL] only 10% of shops find a need to reshim at the first check. Somewhat interestingly almost twice as many (20%) of Do-It-Yourselfers find a need to reshim on the first check. Take from that what you will. [/QUOTE]
