Crank gets worn and the clearances get sloppy,you take shims out that were there since tractor was new.Take the two access covers off the side of the block,you can do all work thru these.Take all spark plugs out,makes it easier to turn over and safer.

Torque is tight,spec unknown.If you were going to work her hard all season you would check these each spring.
