valve lash for Briggs 3 1/2 hp vertical shaft lawn mower engine?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

Been awhile since I did valve job on one of these and for life of me cant find my small engine manual. Think its around .010 for exhaust and half that for intake but not sure. Anybody knows for sure, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
