Thanks guys. So I guess you're doing moving the feeler gauge in and out when the valve is stationary? Are the only reasons to doing it running to keep the engine temp consistent and to not have to move the crank? Also how much oil mess is there?

MY MB-C1 manual lists the valve clearences at temps from 0 to 30 mins startging at .006I and .013E (interestingly same clearance at operating temp too) but says to adjust them at .01 and .02 later. But then it says adjust exhaust to .015 for quietest running and if "the vehicle is not to be used in high engine speed service or heavy going". I doubt this is ever going to work very hard, but the country round here is steep and I have some good sized timber in mind for later on
