Valve Adjustment for Honda GX Series Engines

This video covers the procedure for adjusting the rocker arm clearances for the valves on Honda GX series engines (this same basic procedure works for most overhead-valve small engines).  This is especially necessary when the engine starts "kicking back" the pull-starter rope...because when the valves get out of adjustment, the automatic compression release gets less effective.
