L3830F valve clearance

[mikeee]

I have a 2005 Kubota L3830F small tractor, need to check the valve clearance. What are the valve clearances required?

Factory spec is .0071 to .0089. I just use a .008 feeler guage ( both intake and exhaust cold)

How often should you run the overhead on a kubota ? Thought about doing that to mine.

Thanks for the info. Ed. Looks like I will be starting on the valve adjustment this weekend. Any do's or dont's in doing this repair? Any suggestions or recommendations? I've adjusted valves a hundred times on 4 wheelers & motorcycles but never on a Kubota diesel engine. Thanks again. Mike.

My service manual says to check the valve clearance every 800 hours.
