Don't confuse metric clearance with imperial clearance. He set the valves at .10 and .15mm which is roughly .004 to .005 inch.

The two set screws came out so easily I thought I had it made. Been trying all the usual sprays (ATF, WD 40 etc) heated it up and tried...

Not familiar with your machine. Test the switch several times. "Guessing" it could be a normally open or closed contact??? Any mice...
