Brian you must have a Haynes or Chilton book to give you that flat rate way
of adjusting valves, I've never had any luck getting a precise adjustment
that way.
Peugeot's suggestion for procedure:
Cool engine min. 6 hrs
rotate engine untill exhaust valve # 1 is fully open ( you can use the front
or rear cylinder as # 1, the french way is that # 1 is the cylinder closest
to the flywheel)
Adjust intake valve # 3 (.004 or .006" read the tag under the hood, it can
be either for the diesel), then adjust #4 exhaust 0.010", rotate engine 1/2
turn untill # 3 exhaust valve is completely open, then adjust #4 intake, # 2
exhaust, rotate to #4 exhaust open, adjust # 2 intake, # 1 exhaust, rotate
to # 2 exhaust open, adjust #1 intake and # 3 exhaust
