ok ive now tried to measure the rear valves but i cant get any of the feeler guage in because when you stick it at tdc on the rear cylinder the valves dont point away like they do on the front. they point downwards and only slightly off center pointing towards the outer side on the head.

If you spin it again like it says to do in the manual they point upwards. The front valves pointed outwards perfectly but these just dont.

Any ideas?
