Valve adjustment

And be sure to recheck the clearance AFTER you tighten it, sometimes it spins the adjusting screw while you're tightening down the nut thereby blowing your careful adjustment. I really like JohnMC's method; it means you only have to turn the engine once over. I use a wrench on the main bolt down there under the fan (what's the name of that thing... argh!) as opposed to trying to turn it by hand with the pulleys and such which usually leaves wierd, greasy channels cut into your palms and makes the palm reader say, "You have a crappy car."
What does SHE know, anyway. Bitch.
