Hi David, I set my tappets with a wider gap than you do. 6 for inlet and 8 exhaust. I use the rule of 9 when setting them. No. 1 valve fully open so adjust No, 8 (1+8 = 9. Then No.2 open adjust No 7 and so on until all are done. I also find it easier to remove the inlet manifold to do this when the engine is in the car.

John Mason.
Would you believe it "Her who must be obeyed" refers to my Ruby as the toy.
