What year?????????? I can tell you how to do it, but I wont be able to tell you the gap size without the year. If you have done valves before its a roccker arm system. The very easy one to adjust.

The valve spec is .003 - .005" intake and .005 - .007" exhaust. Sorry, too lazy to type an instruction manual for you.
CHECK YOUR TIRE PRESSURE REGULARLY!!!
