Not today, but at the weekend I finally got motivation up to check the valve clearances as I got fed up with the rattle and wanted to check those before plumping for a cam chain issue.
Struggling to lift the cam covers, and unable to be able to slide them out, I checked cylinder #1. All seemed OK. #2 however seemed to have an excessive gap on the inlet tappets. Everything thrown back together without checking the rest as it will be heading off to a dealer for that to be resolved. I don't fancy trying to get the cams out when I cant even get the covers off properly.
