I will obviously post pics when it gets here. I am thinking I should change the oil and adjust the valves tonight. I do not yet have any manuals for this guy, so I figured I could just ask you guys.

1) What are the adjustments for the valves? This is a stock 74 2 liter.
2) How much oil does this thing take and what type should I get? Any recommendations on filters available through the standard part stores?

Thanks!
