What is the valve clearance supposed to be on a 1997 Ford Festiva?

When adjusting valve clearances on a 1997 Ford Festiva, inlet clearance is 0.20 mm/exhaust clearances are 0.30 mm. These specs are for models before 11/96 or try 0.50 after this date. Check your rocker cover for a sticker which denotes a newer engine. In that case be sure to check specs. In addition, if the Festiva has a 1.5 motor, the valves are hydraulic therefore need no adjusting. If they sound noisy, attempt a good cleaning with a market approved oil/kerosene but most likely they'll have to be replaced.
