Okay, I totally screwed up :o  I have a haynes manuel the big thick service manuel from the dealer for my 90 Tracker.  Well, everything in the Dealer manuel is in the meteric units........when I converted over the measurements for the valves, they were .0051-.0067".   SH*T!  I can't believe I did that....I really hope I didn't screw anything up.

NO, a little loose won't hurt for a short while,
but I wouldn't run too long like that, the hammering
on the ends of the valve stems can mushroom
out the adjuster, plus it sounds like a diesel  ;)

Thanks for the input Wild, I'll be readjusting them soon and hopefully it won't sound like a Freighliner anymore ;D.
