Enhanced Valve Shim Tool (Motion Pro 🔧 08-0019) for Kawasaki KZ - Turbocharge your SEO Review

Rotate the crankshaft to adjust the top dead center of the #1 front piston, and then use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance. Then do the same for #4 TDC, take your measurements and record them. You'll probably find that they're all about to adjust, with two or
