G'day All

Never Done this before, it does get a bit messy.... and the working out also.
Do I aim for the a shim to get me to the Lowest(tight) or Highest(loose)clearance?
Do I just go off the updated Shim Charts

or try to get them all the same on the tight or loose side

I've attached my measurements based on Lobe 180° from Shim and TDC using timing mark, they were pretty close

Cheers Alan

hey Alan,
i usually error towards the looser end of the range as they seem to tighten with wear

I thought I'd try and get measurement on 1 Page rather than Attachment

Yaman, That sounds about right from what I've been told Yaman

Maybe overthinking and should just follow chart.

Maybe just tired from waiting up for my daughter to get home from her overnight excursion which I found out later instead of dropping her friend off to catch a bus today and heading home the 150km trip she decided to drop this friend back home  :Facepalm:which is 500km round trip back to her starting point of 150km to head home, Just hope the wildlife doesn't catch her out. Sorry All

Cheers Alan
