Question:
If a valve adjustment is necessary would a person know by engine performance?

At 165k on the 4.7 and I question whether one has ever been done.

Idles and runs real smooth.
Not sure i would tackle this myself, but might change my mind after hearing a quote for the job.

Guess i cant change that spelling error in the title.lol

The haynes manual had me ask the question. Some of their service interval recommendations arent the same as found in other places so was hoping for clarification. I will wait until something seems off probably on this one. Thanks for the response.
