I just did the valve clearance on the engine of my SJ413 that has the 1000cc engine of an SJ410 :
When cold: 0.13mm Intake and 0.18mm Exhaust
Engine sounded well and worked fine after that.
Enjoy

There is no valve adjustment for that engine, Hydraulic lifters, You might remove the valve cover and see if you have a rocker arm loose

SOURCE: How do you adjust the valve clearances on the

motor has to be turned over counter clock wise to top dead center T or I should show up in the inspection hole. I bought one had a horrible rattle and I thought it was a major problem but turned out to be loose valve adjustment. When turning the motor counter clockwise don`t back up if you go too far just go around again. I set mine to 3 thousandths intake and 4 thousandths exhaust

Kohler 23 HP Command ch23s how do you remove cam shaft

Remove push rods to release pressure on tappets. If valves are closed you can just push down the rocker and move it off the valve stem, otherwise you need to loosen rocker bolt. Note push rod location and catch tappets as you remove the cam

2. Rotate crankshaft to establish TDC on compression
stroke for cylinder 1.
Check for:
a. Compression will be felt through spark plug hole.
b. Keyway of crankshaft will be aligned with cylinder
1.
c. No rocker arm/push rod movement if crankshaft
is rotated slightly back and forth. If they are
moving, rotate crankshaft 1 full revolution.
3. Insert a 0.127 mm (0.005 in.) feeler gauge between
end of 1 valve and rocker arm. Turn adjuster or
adjustment nut (based on design), until a slight drag
is felt. Hold in this position and tighten locking nut or
setscrew securely. Torque setscrew to 7.9 N·m
(70 in. lb.). After tightening recheck adjustment.
Proper valve clearance is 0.101/0.152 mm
(0.004/0.006 in.).
4. Repeat procedure for other valve on side 1.
5. Viewed from PTO end, rotate crankshaft 270° (3/4
turn) counterclockwise and align crankshaft keyway
with cylinder 2, which now puts cylinder at TDC on
compression stroke.
6. Repeat steps 3-4 for setting valve clearance on side
2.
7. Rotate crankshaft to check for free operation of
valve train. Check for clearance between valve
spring coils at full lift, or bending of push rod(s) can
occur. Minimum allowable clearance is 0.25 mm
(0.010 in.).

I bought a new short block for my Kohler CV730 25HP. I'm about to take the old cylinder, valves, rocker arms, push rods, etc. from my old engine and place on the new block. Unfortunately, I'm very...

turn the crank shaft and watch the relationship between the piston position and the cam followers. As the piston nears top dead centre you will see the exhaust cam follower start to move down and the inlet cam follower start to rise up. This will create a rocking motion of the cam followers at top dead centre. This is known as valve overlap assemble the motor in this position. Ensure the valve clearance is backed right off Turn the crank shaft one full revolution and you now have the compression stroke . This places the piston again on TDC and it is at this position you adjust the valve clearance. Check that clearance for the tappets as most engines run .010" and .012"tappet clearance. If the head is fitted last place the push rods in the cam followers if you cannot see the cam followers and it does the same job. When the top of the push rods reach the overlap situation it is just an extension of the cam followers.

Can the overhead valves on a 16hp sears craftsman with a kohler engine be the reason why it won't start and if so, can I adjust them

Valve clearances will also effect the decompression valve in the engine, if they are too wide the valve lifter will not work and the battary will not have enough energy to crack the engine.

Craftsman 24 HP 42" mower...has always been hard

If it has the Briggs or Kohler engine, it has a built in compression release. If the release isn't working properly, it will be hard to start. It mimics a weak battery. One remedy to enable the compression release to work properly is to adjust the valves. They need to be adjusted periodically. Briggs has all the valve clearances for all their engines in an easy-to-use chart. I will give you valve service instructions and then the engine chart with all the valve clearances.
