Ma got hold of a Minneapolis Moline Five Star gas. Puter doesn't like yesterdays  tractors and google doesn't understand what I want. So here I am! Don't have a manual yet. old owner cant find there's and a new one wont be in for awhile. Add a bit of a bet to the mix and there you go Tongue
Was told they had it running but lost a bolt that seems to hold the cam shaft in place/keep it from sliding back and forth. Found a fitting bolt and retaining nut. So here I am wondering if one of y'all would happen to know what the valve lash/gap would be and what the torque on them bolts would be.
 
Ill post some pics if I ever get the phone and puter to act civil.

"Them bolts" ?  you mean the valve adjusting locknuts, or that cam retaining bolt ?

Here's a brief chart showing the the specs for various MM tractors.

I've been told to allow about .003 more on those settings when cold, then when it's up to temp. set them to HOT spec.
