Can anyone help with this, i know clearances but what about which to adjust while others are down, and whats the best way to turn the lump over slowly to do this?
Thanks in anticipation.

not worked on a kad42, but assuming it is a straight engine ,if not V look at the valves & divide the engine into 2, so for a 4 cyl engine

valve nos

12345678

when 1 is down check 8
2 7
3 6
4 5
5 4

etc until done

works for 6 & 8 cyls as well.

as for turning around, spanner on crankshaft nut?
