    The clearences for the 80-81's were changed to 0.11-0.15mm for the intakes, and the exhaust was left at 0.21-0.24mm. I would use the same measurment for the XJ engine. I recommend using a dedicated metric feeler gauge for this. Clymers said the change was made to quite valve noise.

      I think he means that chart where you write down the current clearance, and the current shim, and can then go across to find the new shim needed.

      I had that chart in my Maxim manual, I'll see if I can find it.
      Nice day, if it doesn't rain...

        Plagiarised For Your pleasure!

        Hope you can read these... Intake is first, Exhaust second...












        Maybe someone can get you something better, but maybe this will help for now...

        Try your hardest to be the kind of person your dog thinks you are.

        You can live to be 100, as long as you give up everything that would make you want to live to be 100!
