very nice demo and to the point - would you elaborate a little ore on the drag of the feeler - i usually use a little oil on the feeler too.

This guy says to always adjust your valves with the engine hot. This contradicts every set of instructions I've read (usually says the engine needs to be stone cold!) Though he seems to know what he's doing, so which is correct??

different engines different setting. just make sure that the specs you use are for hot or cold engine. hot specs are usually smaller.

We know metal expands when hot so the size when hot is the actual. The Haynes manual indicates to adjust when hot as well.

`This guy` says to always adjust the valve when the engine is cold!! 5 min. into this little film he says that the engine has to be cold, and that the engine hasn´t run in 20 years...

5:05 - "Should always adjust the valves hot. This engine hasn't run in 20 years so it isn't hot."
