    Adjusting 200x rocker arms??

    How do you adjust the rocker arms on a 85' 200x? I know they have to be gapped at .008mm, but are you supposed to gap both arms at TDC? All you do is loosen up that little bolt, then slide a feeler guage in there, right? If anyone can explain the whole ordeal, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanx again.

    Wink heres how

    The piston does not have to be a TDC. The rockers arms just have to free from touching the valves. After they are free take a 10mm ( i think) socket and losen the nuts and fiddle with the screw till it is at .008mm. Just be careful when losening the nut and keep a good grip on the wrachet so it doesnt twist the rocker arm. Also make the adjustments when the motor is room temp. Easy at that.
