Step 2: Check Valve Clearance
Slide your feeler gauge into the gap between the
valve shim and the rocker arm. The proper valve
clearance for a 2012 KTM 250 SX-F is 18-23
thousands of an inch. If you cannot fit the 18 into
the gap, then you need to put the next size smaller
shim in. If you cannot fit the 23 into the gap, then
you need to increase the valve shim size. Below is a
picture to assist you in the process.
