Default OS 4 Stroke valve kit

Hello,

I recently purchased the valve adjusting kit, but I've found, to my surprise that the wrench does not fit the OS FS-200 (non pumped).
It fits my 91 Surpass just fine but the 200 valve rocker nuts seem to be a little larger. It could also be that the adjusting nut itself is damaged, as I bought the engine second hand but I doubt it as I think I would have noticed that.

I was just wondering if you knew what the correct wrench size for the 200 is (I'm happy to just buy a second wrench).
I assume the valve clearances should be the same as any other OS 4S?

If the wrench *should* fit then I'll pull the rocker cover off again and have another look.

The valve wrench should fit. The valve adjusting procedure is the same for all O.S. four-stroke engines. When the valve is off the cam, the thin feeler fits and the thick one doesn't.

hmmm, strange that it fits the 91 but not the 200. I'll ask tower to send me another.
