I’ve done plenty of 356 valve adjustments…. Now it’s time for the 914-6. I got a set of the feeler gauges and I’m gonna dive into it. Any pointers would be appreciated also what are the correct specs. I will be replacing the valve cover gaskets once I’m finished as well.
Thanks |

Which lower valve covers do you have? Turbo ones? If so have they been milled? If not you will need to drop the engine a little.
Do you have the curved valve tool p214 or something? If not do you have angled feeler gauge? You will need the tool or angled OR the z block and a dial gauge. .1 mm or .004" is what they are set to. Since it's a bit of a pain to see the pulley, might be easiest to look at the cam for backside adjustment method. |
