Currently inspecting my Lark's reed valves. Manual doesn't give much direction on what kind of gap/clearance is acceptable b/t the reeds and the plate. Basically, from what I've read, you hold them up to a light and if you see a sliver of light coming thru under any of the reeds they need to be adjusted down ('more closed'), or replaced, as I'm sure most will suggest. Does this sound right? Or should there be a bit of light coming thru.. or an actual measurement I can take with my feeler gauge??
