Not to sound like a smart-A$$ but you should check under the hood…
This is not for the car you described by the way… just an example…

If the sticker isn’t there you’ll have to track down a service manual. You can sometimes find them online pretty reasonable.
That said, I don’t remember for sure but I think it might be 0.010 intake and 0.018 exhaust. I’m not 100% on those numbers though.
Lastly, valve adjustments can be tricky if you don’t have experience with them. In fact, if you get it wrong you could damage the engine. I would only recommend you adjust the valves if they’re noisy. If they’re not noisy, I’d leave them alone.
Ok. I was changing his valve cover gasket and figured I’d check the valve lash while I’m in there, since it’s a regular service item. They aren’t making any noise though so I guess I’ll leave them alone.
