viper_biker would be rich by now if was selling this guide of his! ;)
Can't it be made as a sticky on here? Just an idea.
If anyone wants a simplified guide of the Valves job, head for my site and you will find it there in the Articles section! It's no match to Gareth's great guide, but it may help. 8-)

You're telling me. I'm not gonna sticky this, but once I have the time to edit the pictures and re-load them into Photobucket to a size the site accepts I'll sticky them.

I do hope that all of those who have benefitted from the information they have got for me and this site remeber it when it comes to donation time. A valve clearance check and shim change will cost £100's in a workshop so a small site doantion I'd imagine whould be nice from everyone who has used my guide.
