hi there this is my first post i just bought an 2006 s40 and decided to do my valves so i also did my decompression cable adjustment. my valves were fine but the cable seemed (or seemed to be) out of the 3-5mm range.now when i start it seems to hesitate and the throttle response is a little off.i know i did it wrong. what i was doing was measuring the decompression soleinoid shaft that didn;t work right so i tried measuring how much i can move the lever by cable/shaft up with my hand it was set for about five, still no luck.......well time for dinner...take a easy

Decompression adjustment has nothing to do with hesitation.
Check and make sure you did the valve adj at TDC of the compression stroke. (your finger gets blown off the sparkplug hole 'til the marks line up in the timing cover hole)
