The best one I have seen on this topic. I will be doing for first time. VERY Helpful
Glad it was helpful! You’ll do fine.
Agreed. I've been waiting for someone to produce a video of this process in detail. Planned to record my own but haven't had time. Thanks, David
@@79cd36 Glad it was helpful!
God bless all RUclipsrs who take your time to make these World Class tutorials.
Thanks David, this has finally given me the confidence to make the adjustment on my Ford 2725e in my 1983 Dutch Gruno trawler here in Sweden.
Bjorn, I’m so glad it helped!
Wow! Excellent tutorial. Thanks,
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks David for an excellent video. A minor question, what contact cement do you use here?
Martin, it’s Weldwood brand. But any brand will work. Good luck. It’s an easy job as long as you work slowly and carefully.
Thank you David. I will give it a shot. I have an SP135 and it seems that the valve clearance can be adjusted on a cold engine for the SP135. Will just double check that. Thanks again for a great video!
How did you adjust the gap with the spanner? I noticed there was no screw that i could see to turn with a screwdriver that i could see on the video
You don’t use a screwdriver because there is no screw. It’s a very high tension nut that you turn with the box-end wrench. Take a look at the video at 13:59 and you’ll see the wrench on the adjusting nut. Good luck!
@@davidvonwolffersdorff2385 thank you, makes life slightly easier
How did you get the socket onto the headbolts on the injector side of the engine?
Are you using a 3” extension on your socket? Would that help with the problem you are having? Take a look at about 9 minutes into my video where I discuss using an extension on your socket. Good luck!
@@davidvonwolffersdorff2385 you don't actually show torquing the head bolts, just the extension and the socket
