stihl km100(4mix)

[spannerman]

anybody know the clearance on the valves for the stihl km100r

[GardenKit]

both inlet and exhaust have same clearance at 0.10mm + or- 0.02mm

You will need to trim your feeler down to about 3mm wide to fit between the pressings of the rocker arm, you will see what I mean.

There is a little arrow on the flywheel, pointing outwards between 2 of the fins, point this towards the RH ignition module (coil) mounting bolt, with both valves closed, ie on firing stroke. (remove the plug so you can feel it coming up on compression with a finger over the hole)

Check and adjust using an 8 mm spanner.

Rotate a couple of times and check again.

If the clearance is too great the decompressor does not work so accurate setting is essential.

Hope this helps
