EDIT: Found the information to all that wants it, go to #3

All the information I seem to find is for the later style 2L and not the early style 'slant head'. I want to do a valve adjustment. Is it the same spec as the late model of 0.20mm-0.30mm intake (cold) and 0.40mm-0.50mm exhaust (cold)? Also thats such a big clearance variation, what exact number would I go for?

EDIT: It appears this is spec for the 1L diesel
What I could find, was this video on youtube where he does 16mm intake and 26mm exhaust. If thats the case that would explain why my engine is so rattly, because I had set it to 25mm intake and 45mm exhaust back in January.

I have an official update. A friend of mine has an original service book from 1984. The proper spec for the early style 2L is as shown.
