When #1 is TDC compression #4 is at TDC at the transition between the exhaust 
and intake stroke so those valves will be nearly closed but completely closed.  
The other two will be at BDC, one of which is commencing the exhaust stroke and 
the other is commencing the compression stroke.  One will be closing off the 
intake valve and the other will be just opening the exhaust valve.  So I'd say 
no, none of the other cylinders will have the valves closed to the point where 
you can set the gap.  All three will have one or more valves slightly open.

on a tr4 engine, when the first cylinder is at top dead center, the two valves 
are both completely closed.   
    
    
    
do any other cylinders have both valves closed?  or are they all at various 
stages?
