[QUOTE="hppants, post: 1256921, member: 27852"] If you have multiple valves out of spec, I would venture to say you are in the "less than 5 percentile", and maybe even less than that. Very surprising to read this. Are you using "go or no-go" feeler gages? There is no doubt, the exhaust valves will tighten with mileage, and if they get too tight, bad things are going to happen. FWIW - on my gen I, I checked mine for the 2nd time at 56-ishK - negligible change from the first check at 28K. I buttoned it back up and left it alone. [/QUOTE]
