Does the 0.017 measurement increase, decrease, or remain the same throughout the compression stroke? From your answer both intake and exhaust are closed (the way I do it) and the dial indicator (if I had one) does not move as the piston goes up. So I will assume your answer is "stays the same" -- only mine varies about 0.003. I know that regardless of which cycle the engine is in, that a closed valve can be adjusted, but does the piston have to be at absolute TDC when the adjustment is made?? Again, from your answer, apparently not as the dial indicator is not supposed to move until the lobe lifts the lifter. At the beginning of the compression stroke, my feeler guage is tighter than at TDC. So is there maybe something wrong with my valve train? -- tractor runs fine. I am adjusting the valves following a valve job.
