[QUOTE="MCRIDER007, post: 1411170, member: 329"] If you are going to damage the engine by 2 valves being slightly out of spec then it already would have happened. There is always the possibility that the valves are going to tighten further in the next 50-100k miles and will eventually reach the point where you are risking engine damage so the question is how many more miles do you expect to put on that engine? If the answer is 50k I wouldnt worry about it, if the answer is 100k then you probably should adjust them although another alternative would be to continue checking them every 25k miles. Once the engine is opened up for a valve check its only a couple of more hours to adjust...and then you can forget about it. [/QUOTE]
