Seeing as I bought it with only 1009 miles on it...I doubt the PO adjusted them...so the answer is never..

Thanks guys...

I found this thread on valve adjustment. Before I tear into it, though, are there any updates to the information given?

Since this will be my first crack at it, I would really appreciate any and all responses. Don't wanna mess anything up...

Thanks again, Everyone.
