You will need to adjust the valves at least every 25 hours. I used to do it almost every time I had the cowling off. On the old Beetle, you would adjust the valves every oil change. If you do the adjustment properly and often, you will not have any problems with them. However, hydraulics do sound nice, but I remember hearing some negative stuff about them, but your results will vary. See you in Mt.
