You'll need a lot of patience and tiny fingers to adjust the intake side.

Putting the tank back on is always a challenge.

Yep. Suzuki engineers did a good job on these. Tiny fingers, tiny covers, and tiny tools. I find it is easiest to snug them with a .005" feeler and then tighten the nut firmly. That usually places the clearance in the middle at .004".
