Gotta love old UJM's, simple and fun to work on.

Tank removed -



Specialited fastener containment recepticals (egg carton) and other stuff on the car.



Valve cover off



Special tool in place, holding bucket down



Had a nice selection of shims on hand



Also replaced the plugs, fuel filter, synch'ed the carbs.

Oh, 5 valves needed adjustment (all intake), and only one carb needed a minor bump.

The plan is to order up a new valve cover gasket, retaining bolt seals and a set of really awesome feeler gauges from Mikes XS then do them all to as perfect as I can get them.

Now they are "shop tuned" all within spec.

At least you have shim on top of bucket
I have shim under bucket with my Megacycle cams, ape springs and Titanium retainers...aghhhh :negative: :wacko1:
If it's not broken, fix it anyways
