October 11, 20169 yr Hi hope this is in right place,I have 1998 2.0 impretza wrx sti,this needs valve clearances adjusting.Where in oxfordshire can i get this done?
October 11, 20169 yr Yep the valves work with hydraulic lifters . Unless your lucky enough to have the "under bucket shim " type heads ,then they can be adjusted slightly by fitting different size shims . Either way your probably looking at a engine out and top end rebuild unfortunately.
October 12, 20169 yr As above - what are the indications you need the valves clearances checking adjusting?

Yeah i know,had it serviced at edmotorsport.co.uk and he said they needed adjusting. When i tried to book it in , he said had not got his shim kit.
