Hi.
Been a while...wow! Hope you're all well. Question! Having run on a pancake (flat 4) engine with the valves adjusted to 1.5 turns, my drive has been a drag (about 1000miles)...worst...terribly loosing momentum on hills. I adjusted the valves to 0-lash today and my-oh-my... 'Haven't I got it all back!!!'
Is there any worry with keeping the adjustments at 0-lash?? Kindly advice.
Thanks.
