Do you have a repair manual? It really is not hard. Assuming its the same as most other single cams you pull off the coil on plug stuff, pull off the valve cover then take the plugs out and rotate the engine until cylinder 1 is at tdc. Then you slip your feeler gauge between the rocker and your valve. I believe intake should be around .010 and exhaust .011? Once you have adjusted cylinder 1(done by loosening the 10mm lock nut on the rocker and then turning the adjustment screw with a flat head screw driver then re-tightening the lock nut) you can rotate the engine 180* (90* at the camshaft) and check number 3 cyl. And so on and so on. Then reassemble it all and enjoy a much quieter valve train.
