So I'm slapping my 2.0 AC together and adjusting valve lash, and I'm sure I'm misunderstanding my Bentley (I would double check my Haynes manual, but a squirrel chewed off the page I need -don't ask). From what I understand, it says to adjust the screw against the valve stem with piston at TDC, and them screw it in 2 more turns. What this accomplishes is it pushes the valve open. Why would a lifter preset have the valves open during a compression stroke? What am I not getting? Nathaniel
