As u all know I have been having trouble starting my engine changing starters and adjusting valves many times without change I seen someone else was having the same problem same engine and they said to tighten the exhaust valve a little more and It would start better. I did that and now the flywheel turns a lot easier turns with some resistant but not like before where u have to put all your strength into It will this cause any problems the exhaust valve a little tighter?

I will not try to read all of this stuff again, but your problem is likely internal dealing with the compression release..... If not, these other guys are more than welcome to spend several hours to try and prove me wrong.....
