Apparently they tighten with wear. But my reading online seems to match yours: too tight means less heat transfer and a few other things not lovely. So I set them to MAX spec, which means they are set to the most loose position permissible. (I was conservative as to how I measured that on the feeler gauge because I was concerned about measuring poorly and having too loose and so my lash is likely slightly less than maximum.)

Yes, I do. And thanks for the tutorials on it.
