Valve spacing on B18A with C camshaft 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be Joaquin Novara on  Thu Apr 1 08:31 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hello, my 121 Amazon (a 122 with 4 doors) have a B18A engine (one carb).

Yesteryear, as a part of the overhaul, I mount a "C" camshaft on it and set the valve clearance on 0.018" (the spec for B18A), but, after some reading, I found now that the B18B with "C" camshaft uses 0.022" (B18A originally come from factory with A camshaft).

Should I reset the valve clearance to 0.022"?

Thanks in advance for your answers.
