You hit the nail on the head. I had lots of trouble hand starting with too
much resistance. As soon as I took the valve cover off, it was obvious the
exhaust valve clearance had far more slop than the intake valve. Set
clearance on both intake and exhaust valves to .003" as per spec and starting
could not be easier. Thanks for a very useful post.
