valve adj

I'd like to adj the valves on my 100/6. The car is indoors so I can't warm it up. If the "hot" setting is .012, what would be a reasonable number for a cold engine. I'm not looking for absolute, just somewhere to start that won't be radically wrong. Thanks, Bob
 
Hi Bob, they really do not change much between Hot or Cold. You might set a Tight 0.013" for peace of mind.--Fwiw---Keoke
