 i just adjusted my valves on my renegade tonight(i used the shop manual for reference,and it wasnt my first time doing valves on an atv)but now my engine has a high idle and the check engine light just came on.i let the engine cool for a few hours and re-checked the gaps and they all seem perfect i set my intake to .0040 and exhaust to .0060. it should be the mean value of there recommended settings.
