Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) need valves adjusted in southern Ohio

[calexander]

Have a 99 24 valve with 180,000 miles. Any suggestions where to take the truck to get the valves adjusted? Live about an hour below Columbus Ohio.



Thanks

It only takes about an hour to do it yourself. Any garage can do it. It is really pretty easy and only takes a wrench, screw driver and feeler guage and a way to roll the engine one revolution. Some people do that with the alternator bolt. I do it on the crankshaft damper.



With a garage you will have to leave it so that the engine is cool when they do the adjustment.

Go to the following link and it has pictures and instructions.
