Here is the procedure.
They give hot and cold specs.
The hot specs are much larger, and you might have set them when too cold to use the hot specs.
Or you many not have set the crankshaft to TDC and done the right set of valves.
But being overhead cam, you should have easily recognized whether or not the cam was free from pressing on the tappet.
I also do not recommend light oil like 5w-20. I prefer 10w-40 or 20w-50 unless you live in a very cold climate.
