I am needing to know the best way to set my Valve Rocker and Head Bolt tension settings in my Landcruiser. Is this something I can do myself at home.

Hi there,

If the head has not been removed you should not touch the head bolts, you can do the valve clearances, but i need to know if it is a petrol or diesel engine, and before you attempt this, are you familiar with the method of re setting valve clearances?
