Hello,

Time has come to check the valve clearance. Upon opening the valve cover and setting the TDC, I've noticed that the arrows are not in line and parallel to the case as should be. The intake side is pointing more upwards and the exhaust side more downwards with the T at the top in the router and the arrows pointing forward.A Wossner piston was installed about 30 000km back.

My question is, is the difference acceptable and or is this off concern?
