I bought a remote starter at harbor freight and use the procedure written at the end of the pelicanparts reference above. Which is ALSO just like toon says: "adjusting the valve known to be totally on the base of the cam". The pelican parts article just gives the numbers in a table (that I have tacked to the wall) like "when these two valves are rocking, you can adjust these two other valves", walking you all the way up and down through each set of valves- since you can adjust two at a time. The remote starter was $12, and I take the tires off so I can;t turn a wheel.
