Great video! I have had old VW air-cooled cars all my life and have adjusted them similar to this but I needed this video to confirm it was pretty much the same on my 1966 Amazon 122s. Cheers,
I had heard the "sum of 9" where valve #8 is fully open and #1 can be adjusted, #7 open & #2 is adjusted, etc, but I think I'll try this method of "sum of 5" today. Seems easier and faster.
What about if the camshaft is slightly worn and thus the 0,40 (I think the original setting when new was?) valve setting can't probably be used any more?
Nice. But arent valve clearance usually adjusted with a warm engine? Especially on pushrod engines? Or are Volvo valve clearance values listed for cold engine?
