Checking Shims??
This might sound like a stupid question but Im gona ask anyway, I am getting the cambelt changed in my version 2 sti this week and they are going to take a look at the shims/lifters for me also as there is a bit of a tapping. My question is do they have to drain the engine oil to do this?
Thanks.
Thanks.

You can check the Cam clearances without taking the cam belt off.
Just take the rocker/camshaft covers off and slip a feeler guage under each lobe.
Not quite that simple but that's all that's involved with shimmed followers
Of course if they need re shimming then it's belt off, cam out job
