Can anybody tell me the valve,tappet clearance on a Tecumseh H60 ,i think this might be the reason for the engine stopping when it gets hot. This is on my 68 Lawnranger original engine.

The book calls for .008" (.203 m.m.) to 012" (.305 m.m.) on both valves.

I generally set the exhaust valve at the high end of the specs due to more thermal expansion. (intake at .008" / exhaust at .012")

Here is a LINK TO A PDF MANUAL FOR TECUMSEH ENGINES
