Tools required are: small flathead screwdriver, wrench for locknut (12mm?), and a feeler gauge. I found it easier to set the lash with the engine cold rather than hot because I didn't have to race through the operation before everything cooled off. When you set the locknut the lash might pull back slightly out of spec, so re-measure each one as you go along until you feel that it is good to go. Work on each valve as the camshaft lobe is pointing away from the rocker arm. The cold specs are: intake--.008in, exhaust--.009in.
You will need to turn the crankshaft in order to move the cam lobes where you need them. You can do this with a socket (19mm?) and ratchet.
