To adjust the valves on your 2003 Honda Rancher, first ensure the engine is cold and remove the seat and side covers to access the engine. Use a 10mm socket to remove the valve cover, then rotate the engine to bring the piston to the top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke. Check the valve clearance using a feeler gauge; the intake clearance should be 0.004 inches and the exhaust 0.005 inches. If adjustments are needed, loosen the lock nut on the rocker arm and turn the adjusting screw to achieve the proper clearance, then recheck before reassembling everything.
