Valve clearances
Is everyone seeing the same thing upon their first valve inspection, that the gaps are too wide?
I haven't done mine yet, but have seen multiple reports that the gaps are too wide, even after 1000 miles. (supposed to be .06, measured at .1 or something to that effect) Too wide is better than too tight. Do we think Zongshen is trying to compromise, assuming that many owners won't check or adjust their valves often enough?...and maybe leaving them wide in order to allow more leeway? Lee's recent post about poor mpg started me thinking. I'm just through my first tank of gas, and after this coming weekend will no doubt be around 500 miles or so. Lee did also post about top speed, and his was right in line with others, indicating the motor is running well? Just trying to understand. |
