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

Drop the motor and trans out of the car.

You have to drain the oil to remove the lower valve covers anyway. And you can adjust the valves and replace the alternator belt much easier with the engine out.

You will spend more time and have more frustration trying to adjust the valves down in bottom of that narrow hole.


Just my $.02
