I use a very simple but fool proof method...
Pull the plugs so not fighting compression. Start with the front valve for convenience, turn the engine until the valve is closed, get the feeler gauge in, start hand turning the engine, feeling and adjusting for the loosest gap wherever it is found. Snug down the lock, turn it through again just to be sure it's right.
I feel for a slight drag on the gauge.
If this is the first assembly after a reassembly, I'll not worry to get it perfect as it will need to be redone after the initial run and head retorque.
Then go back through, checking again, but this time being very meticulous to get them exactly right. I'll usually start it up with the cover off to listen, and be sure they are all oiling.
This method takes a little longer, but worth it to be sure they are right. Especially if it is one that is not easily accessed because the tank has to come off!
