I went over the rocker arm & valve clearance per the maintance manual

(task card 247).  It states a clearance of 0.3 mm for both valves,

cold.  



The clearances on mine (romanian m14p) were mostly 0.3 mm for the

intake valves, but 0.45 mm for the exhaust valves.  I set them all at

0.3 mm per the manual, but due to the consistancy of the exhaust

settings, I thought I'd ask if anyone has found a similar thing?  



The placard on the nose case states 0.010", but I thought 0.012"

(0.3mm) close enough.



Thanks,

John

You are correct. .012 is closer. It is normal for them to ware. We recommend

adjustment at 30 hours from new and then every 100 hrs.
