EZGO Golf Cart Valve Lash Adjustment 2 Cylinder Robin Engine
How to adjust the valves in a 2 Cylinder Robin Engine EZ-Go golf cart with a feeler gauge. Adjusting the valves on these small motors are relatively easy to do with a little knowledge. Just follow the steps below.

Start with a cool engine for clearance and safety.

Remove the 6 valve cover bolts, and pry off cover.

Choose a valve to start. Turn cam lobe down by rotating drive clutch by hand. Loosen adjuster lock nut 1/4-1/2 turn.

Insert .004″ feeler gauge between cam, and lifter. Turn adjuster until feeler gauge has very slight drag, but is free.

Steady the adjuster with a screwdriver, and tighten lock nut. Then re-check with feeler gauge again. Now, do the same for the remaining valves. The middle two are the intake valves.

Re-install cover. Tighten bolts to 5 ft/lbs.

As with all repairs do at your own risk. Be very sure of what you are doing as to not damage your motor.
