Setting valve clearance on Saito .91
I'm having trouble getting this right. The instructions aren't much help. After I made the adjustment the engine runs good , but it makes a noise I didn't notice before. Can someone give me simple to follow instructions on how to do this?

RE: Setting valve clearance on Saito .91
Charlie, the easiest way is to simply place the piston at TDC on the compression stroke and set them, when you get the lash where you want it you must hold the set screw while you tighten the jam nut. I have a rather heavy test stand I place engines in while doing this.
