Default Re: piston to valve clearance

Get some kids clay, playdough, etc. I hope when you say you "spun the engine over" that you did it with a wrench on the crank.

Go to hardware, Homedepot, Lowes, etc. and buy two cheap springs from anything. They should have something in those drawers with all the clips and all in them. You need to make sure this is right, or you'll be real sorry if not.

You need about .100 clearance.
