200e intake valve

[NubWheeler]

Ok, so I have an 82 big red 200e, how do I adjust the intake valve? I cant get the cover off because the top motor mount is in the way. Do I really need to take the motor out for this?

no it should have just enough clearance. my dads 82 did unless someone took a small grinder to it. if not enough clearence take a dremel or something to it
