Re: Valve adjustment

Very nicely done! This will help people who have never done this a lot. Great photos!

One suggestion. Not everyone has a flat wrench that fits into the slot on the generator cover well enough not to gouge it up. A handy trick I've learned is to use a thick fender washer available at any hardware store. If they only have thin ones, you can double them up. If you get one that fits about right, you can just use the same screwdriver tip to turn it that you use with the spark plug wrench.
