Troy Bilt with honda 160cc valve cover (Question)
I am trying to learn how to adjust the valves on my Honda
160 cc lawnmower engine so I took the four small bolts off the valve cover but it seems to be stuck or still attached somewhere, I was hoping someone would be familiar with this situation and maybe share some advice. I am attaching a photo of the engine I have. Thank you

They often stick. A gentle tap with a rubber or plastic hammer or the plastic handle of a screw driver will pop it loose. Don't hit it so hard to cause a dent or deform it. If that does not work you can also use a flat blade screw driver between the cover and engine to gently pry the cover loose. Make sure you don't tear the gasket or scratch the cylinder housing.
