    Measured clearances.

    Clymer says:

    Intake 0.11-0.15
    Exhaust 0.16-0.20

    Feeler gauge says:

    Intake
    0.11|0.12|0.12|0.12

    Exhaust
    0.17|0.16|0.16|0.17


    So, worth messing with, or leave well enough alone?

    they are still in spec at this check. Some of them are right at the line, BUT they are STILL in spec. Leave 'em......you'll PROBABLY be changing them at the next check, but it is entirely possible that they could still be in spec then, too....................
