Thanks guys, can i measure the clearances with a feeler gauge?
I will not be using him again, i found another mech and no headwork was done at all, just headgasket... my car has lost alot of power since he worked on it and i think my timing is waaaaay out! she doesnt idle as low as she used to and the power comes and goes when it wants to..... my car used to cream my brothers starlet but now he's giving me gaps! very frustrating!
