Kymco Like 200i Scooter Valve Clearance Adjustment

Great video.
Two points:
It is not necessary to remove the battery - just place a heavy cloth over the battery.
Also, please check for a slight movement in the rocker arms to insure that you are at TDC - if there is no movement you could be 360 degrees off, and you will need to rotate the engine again.

Will this be the same spec/procedure on my Like 150i ?  And do you know where I can find a book on torque specs, etc. for my 150i?

No.
Different engine. Different method of getting to the valve cover.
Www.cyclepedia.com has service manual for your scooter, with torque specs, etc.
There may be a YouTube video for your scooter model. I do not know...I've never looked.....

Also, Welcome to the forum!

i have a 150i and ive done the valve adjustment multiple times. there are 4 of them that need to be adjusted. my service manual suggests intake set to .12mm and exhaust set to .12mm. However ive found that is way too loose and i set mine to intake .003mm and exhaust to .004mm. Hope this helps
