On another thread I tried asking for a little advice about valve adjustment and received Norman's obnoxious reply instructing me to "rtfm." Another member echoed Norman's oh-so-clever comments, then no more posts were made, perhaps because my question was buried in a thread that ran its course.
After having read over many of the posts to this forum, I frankly expected better, and can't quite understand why the question I asked would elicit such a rude response. Perhaps I overstepped some boundary that I, as newbie, might be unaware of? If so, my apologies, but somehow I doubt it.
In the meantime, I thought I'd try again and see what others might have to say. My original question was a bit vague (I asked for any suggetions regarding valve adjustments) but was intended to find out if a valve adjustment was necessary on the AN650 at 600 miles and if it was a complicated matter best left to a real mechanic, or one I might be able to tackle myself? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
