I have an 81 1.6 d Rabbit that needs the valves lash adjusted. I want to buy some discs that measure less than 3.60mm and over 3.75 mm. I have never adjusted the valves on the 1.5, 1.6 diesels so I don't really know what discs I will need or what is commonly used, but I have 1-3.55, 3-3.65, 6-3.70, 1-3.75, 1-3.80 on hand.
What sizes are the most common that I will need, and what would some of you recommend?
If some of you all have some simple tips to help in adjusting these, getting the discs out, what tools I will need etc., I would appreciate the counsel.
I would like buy some other lesser and greater discs to have on hand when I dive into adjusting the valves. If you have some random discs, sets etc. let me know and see if I can get what I need to adjust these up. I will need more for my 1.6 td also I expect, as well as a couple more engines I have. So, let me know what you think I need, and what you have.
I would also like to buy some used tools if you have any extra lying around that will work well. I will be needing to adjust the valves in 11mm 1.5 and 1.6 heads, and the 12mm head.
Thanks :)
