Have an older Ariens rider with a Tecumseh OHV 15
model #204009
Can't find valve settings anywhere for this motor
And do you set the same as a Briggs??
Thanks

Set each valve to .004 inch where feeler gauge just fits with a slight drag between the rocker tip and valve stem. Do this with engine cold and plug removed.

Page 84 has the specs page. The procedure is explained just prior.
