NO, NO, NO!!!  2 turns is too much!  I has to be 1 turn at the most or his
valves will stay open.  Found this out the hard way when adjusting them on my
'84.  VW recommends less than 2 turns but I am still not sure exactly how much
they should be adjusted (just not that much).  Maybe one of our resident VW
certified mech's knows the answer.  (Rick?)
