Ooops...I guess you're just a glutton for punishment with your Browns then, huh?

Not that the Panthers are doing much better, either...

Getting to them isn't my concern. Knowing if they need replaced does.

Its easy Ryan.

A set f feeler gauges will measure the gap, and then you know if its within tolerance or not.

When I had my 800, I did a couple of valve adjustments and never bought a shim. You can switch them around to get what you need where you need it. If you do need a couple, just write down what you need, then take the ones you can't use down to a local shop and swap them for the ones you need.
