When to Adjust Valve?
I'm just curious that when do I need valve adjustment.
Should I look for any kind of sound???
those who done their valve adjustment please recommend good shop in NYC/Long Island area.
Thx..

Billman250 would be the best I know in that area...but I think you have to be an s2ki member rather than just a guest for him to work on your car.

If you've never had your valves adjusted, I would do it done now, regardless of mileage. We did a tech day a few years back, and every single car had a couple of vales out of spec, even those with low mileage. Typically it was a couple of loose exhaust valves on each car, IIRC.
Your engine will be a little quieter, and the car will idle a little smoother with properly adjusted valves.
