Hi james, its nice to hear that you already sort your problem. I have also same car with yours, engine CD20 and my mechanic open the engine and found out that the valves(8) clearance are not uniform. I am wondering which is the right clearance. As of now im looking for a engine manual do you have any idea were can i get one?
