This video covers the procedure for adjusting the rocker arm clearances for the valves on Honda GX series engines (this same basic procedure works for most overhead-valve small engines). This is especially necessary when the engine starts "kicking back" the pull-starter rope...because when the valves get out of adjustment, the automatic compression release gets less effective.
