How do I adjust my valves?
Well, I have seen my mechanic adjust my valves before, it didn't seem to hard. I bought a set of feeler gauges at Advance Auto Parts. I have seen him do it about 2 times. I understand that u loosen the nut, tighten the screw, but i dont know how it should feel when i pull ouyt the feeler gauge. Should I be able to stick it back in again. Where do the cam lobes have to be when I do this tho. If someone has a link or a manual page to show me I would appreciate it. Or maybe jsut some personal KNowledge. I really want to learn this. I am very good with cars and have done tons of stuff.

It is the same idea on your B16 as it is on the B18C. The feeler should slightly drag. You should be able to put it back into the clearance, but with some resistance.
