Intake: 0.004-0.006 inches
Exhaust: 0.006-0.008 inches
These specifications are for a cold engine. To adjust the valves, you will need a feeler gauge and a wrench.
Here are the steps on how to adjust the valves on a Poulan PR550Y22R3:
Remove the spark plug.
Turn the engine over by hand until the piston in cylinder 1 is at top dead center (TDC). This is the point where the piston is at its highest point in the cylinder.
Locate the intake and exhaust valves for cylinder 1.
Insert the feeler gauge between the valve stem and the rocker arm.
Adjust the valve clearance by turning the nut on the rocker arm until the feeler gauge fits snugly.
Repeat steps 3-5 for the intake and exhaust valves for all cylinders.
Install the spark plug and start the engine.
It is important to note that these are just the general valve adjustment specs for the Poulan PR550Y22R3. The actual specifications may vary depending on the engine's age and condition. It is always best to consult your owner's manual for the specific valve adjustment specifications for your engine.
Here are some of the things to keep in mind when adjusting the valves on a Poulan PR550Y22R3:
Be careful not to overtighten the nuts on the rocker arms. This can damage the valves.
Make sure that the feeler gauge is the correct thickness for the valve clearance.
Rotate the engine by hand a few times after adjusting the valves to make sure that they are seated properly.
If you are not comfortable adjusting the valves on your own, it is best to take your lawnmower to a qualified mechanic.
