I finally got the correct steps to do my valve clearance. But my problem is that when I accelerate it is quite noisy as if the valve clearance needs to be done. However, it is totally quiet when idling. Does it mean that I have to go lower with the measurements?
I am attaching the measurements I have used.

These valve clearance specs look correct. Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so I can hear the noise? That way I can tell for sure what's going on. You can upload it here with your response.
