    Just doing 24k service on Sprint 1050.

    On checking valve clearances all are in tolerance except one exhaust valve , this is a bit slack.

    I just tightly fit a 0.25mm gauge in.

    Thinking its not worth pulling the cams out for one shim as i presume its been like this a while.

    What do you guys think ?

    Also I amazed at how dirty the air filter is !!!

    Normally valve clearances become tighter over time. If you have one a bit on the loose side I'd be tempted to leave it. :)
