tried doing this earlier tonight engine was just warm after a rattly ride, thought i'd have a look'
took off the acorn nut mine was a couple of mil inside . after messing around ie undone the lock nut turned the adjuster nut some turns but only succeeded in winding the large threaded outer bit almost completely in without actually achieving a thing . sat back looked at it a while started turning the large outer threaded part out by hand to what it was before i started now its sitting about 4 mil inside . just read the other post by 5twins going to have another go with the engine running/ idling sounds a better way . I had gone on youtube to see another way was to take the stator cover off my screws are mashed so couldnt follow through that way . so will try the engine running .
