Hi all.
I was going to check my valve clearance tomorrow.
I have a 71 US crossover with a 1700 type 4 engine.
Manual states .15mm gap for inlet..ok.
Also states .15mm exhaust on engines without sodium valves & .2mm for sodium valves.
Problem is..how do I tell?
Manual says sodium valves are from 73 (chassis number 213...onwards)...
My bus is a 71 but log book states chassis number 223..
Confused!
