Title: Valve clearance
Post by: Thomas on April 15, 2018, 12:16:58 PM
Hi all! I can't find the valve clearance for my 1937 Model 9. What is it for both valves? Cheers, Thomas

Clearances cold are: Inlet 0.004", exhaust 0.006". This info is in the Handbook, but it takes a bit of finding!

Thank you, Paul! I unsuccessfully double checked "The Book of the Sunbeam" and the "Instruction Manual". Maybe a kind of dementia...  :o
