i was planning to DIY but i just wanted the adjustment numbers. now that i know i'll be doing it.

a write up on thezcr.com kinda confuses me with this.
"NOTE: DOHC adjustment is not like SOHC adjustment – SOHC, you check lash between bottom of adjusting screw and top of valve – DOHC, you check lash between rocker arm and camshaft lobe."

mine is a dohc so where does the feeler gauge go? anyone have a pic?

I think this is the right pic. i've never done it before but i'm planning to soon. This could be a different engine but i think its the same deal.

Look at the camshaft , and see the shiny part (worn part) of the lobe. u need to slide the gauge inbetween that and the rocker arm
