Remember that if you are going by the Haynes Manual for TR 2-4a, for 
tightening valves, the sequence in the manual has a typo..

On page 48, the sequence for adjustment shoule be..

Valve Fully Open                Check and Adjust
#8                                  #1
#6                                  #3
#4                                  #5
#7                                  #2
#1                                  #8
#3                                  #6
#5                                  #4
#2                                  #7

My Hanyes book is rather old and the new reprints may have corrected the 
error that is listed as..

Valve fully open                Check and Adjust
#7                                  #8
#1                                  #8

Obviously # 8 is listed twice and if you go by the manual, you may not check 
and adjust #2..

Good Luck
