    Valve clearance

    by bingy331 » Tue Jan 01, 2013 3:18 pm

    My sons CRF 250 R intake valve clearence is a tight .004 but an easy .003 inch.
    Would you shim the valve when it should be .005 inch ?

    or is this still ok as the manuall recomends +- .001

    Thanks

    Tight means it is not .004 :-)

    1 shim size down gets you to .005 with maybe a little give based on your post. Still less than the .006 max.
