You will need a set of feeler gauges to gap the valves correctly.
It can be tough to get them just right so don't be discouraged when you gap them tighten them and then check and the gap is wrong. Just back up and go again. It took me a couple of tries the first time I did it to get them to stay where I wanted them.

A trick I used was to use the 005 and tighten it down by hand against the feeler gauge. then when I finished tightening them up they were both spot on at 004.

You should only feel a little resistance on the gauge when you slide the right one in. If its hard or hangs they are too tight, If it slides free with no resistance try the next gauge up and see if it slides in if it does then your to loose.

There are others on here that im sure have better ways of doing it and know far more than me. That is just how I did mine.

check Youtube for GY6 valve adjustment. there are a lot of videos that will show you exactly how to do it
