Need a valve shim for my rebuild. I dont know how but one has gone missing during the strip down. If anyone has one lying around let me know.

they are different sizes. You will need to measure the clearance and get the right size.

All the other ones also need to go back in *exactly* the same places they came from.

If you have changed valves, seats, or ground them, you should be measuring all the clearances and changing the shims if necessary anyway.

Sorry what I need is the spring shim. The washer that sits under the spring it's about 25-30mm wide. They are all the same dimension but for some reason I only have 15 in the bag
