Valve Guide Clearance on OM642
Hey guys, I have heads off om642 on GL350 2012.
I notice that there is a bit of play in each valve. I am taking the heads to a machine shop to get cleaned, and want them to check the play to see how much clearance there is between the guide and valve stem. I tried finding the acceptable range in WIS but all I found was an article advising to visually inspect the stem for scratches (and to use your nail). Does anyone know where to find these values?
