Just about to adjust the valves on my 5711 as they were all tight before I worked on the heads.
Could anyone tell me the correct sequence in which I should adjust them please?
Many thanks.
 
Use this method.
Adjust valves 1 & 2 with 7 & 8 on the rock.
Adjust valves 3 & 4 with 5 & 6 on the rock.
Adjust valves 5 & 6 with 3 & 4 on the rock.
Adjust valves 7 & 8 with 1 & 2 on the rock.
Valve clearance is checked with a cold engine.
Inlet (short rocker arm) 0.2mm.
Exhaust (long rocker arm) 0.3mm.
 
Thanks Alan! Thats fantastic stuff. Youve just stopped me trashing my engine.
All the best to you.

Just adjusted the tappets,and not much different than before to be honest- plumes of black smoke still,either that or somthing else like pump or governor perhaps?
When you say "adjust 1&2 with 7&8 on the rock" ,do you mean adjust 1 when 7`s open,and 2 when 8`s open?
Sorry if I`m being thick!
