Starting and Running Problem...

ok sounds like a couple of them are still too tight,most slaty's dont have balancer bolts so you will have to bump the engine over,with a screwdriver across the starter terminals,more on this later,bump the engine over till you see the intake valve for the #1 cylinder start to go downward(opening the intake valve)and use the .020 gauge in between the tip of the rocker arm and the valve stem(lil' round "thingie" in center of the valve spring)loosen the adjuster nut on the opposite side of the rocker arm till the feeler gauge will slide in with a lil' pressure(tiny bit) then you are done with the exhaust side of that cylinder.now bump the engine over till the exhaust valve starts to move downward (opening the exhaust valve).now you are ready to adjust the intake valve for the #1 cylinder and use the .010 gauge and adjust that to fit.you are now done adjusting the valves for the #1 cylinder,Next step...adjust the other five cylinders following this procedure(lather, rinse, repeat) ok you can buy a remote starter button to bump the engine over and look like a pro or use a screwdriver across the starter terminals and save money and look "brave" either one will work make sure your hands are not in the fan.make sure the ignition switch is in the off position before trying this and the emergency brake on and chock the wheels to be on the safe side.I'll see if I can find a pic of the starter motor so I can show you the terminals.oh well can't find a pic so you'll have to brave it!!!so ennywho your gonna see the starter motor on the side of the engine and there will be two wires hooked to it,a big one and a lil' one take a screwdriver and touch the big terminal of it with the tip of the screwdriver and then move the screwdriver till it touches the lil' terminal and the big terminal at the same time and the starter will spin the engine over(MAKE SURE KEY IS OFF)with practice you can give it lil' bumps to spin the engine and adjust the valves...if this turns out to be a shocking experience dont stand in water while doing it!!! j/k it's only 12 volts it wont hurt you.(don't try this with the coil wire)it'll straighten your hair or curl it(whichever one you don't like)

I'm glad you posted this ... I believe she might have been adjusting the intake lets say with it starting to push the valve down.... that's not going to work.

The exhaust needs to be adjusted as the intake starts to go down on the same cylinder.
