83 yamaha xt 200 valve adjustments

SOURCE: 2001 yamaha warrior valve adjustment

hello
with the cylinder set at top dead center compression. using a feeler gauge between the tappets and the valves there should be .002-.003in clearance on the intake valves, and .006-.007in. clearance on the exhaust valves. thank you.

first you need to remove everything that covers your valve covers(gas tank etc.) remove the intake valve cover,and the rotor nut and timing plug.set the engine a t.d.c.(top dead center)fit a socket onto the rotor nut and turn it counterclockwise until the"I" mark appears align it with the index mark in the timing hole.use a flat feeler gauge between the top of the valve and the adjuster.loosen the locknut and turn the adjuster just until you feel resistance on the feeler guage.hold the adjuster and tighten the lock nut down.i can not tell you the min.clearance spec to your quad since i have a 660 raptor.try using the smallest clearance number.

You don't adjust them as they are hydraulic.

Hi, the points gap is 14 to 16 Thou. Inlet valves 4 thou, exhaust valves 6 thou. I dont know the settings in metric, so using a set of imperial feeler gauges, that measure in thousands of an inch.
An easy tip for setting the points, is use the thickness of a standard cardboard, Business Card, it is the correct thickness for your points gap.
