TROUBLESHOT THE  R4 DOOR AND FOUND DOOR OPS NORMALLY UNPRESSURIZED BUT WHEN CABIN IS PRESSURIZED HAS VERY SOFT UNLATCHING AND VERY LITTLE  OVER CENTER. FOUND DOOR NOT WITHIN FLUSHNESS REQUIREMENTS IAW AMM 52-11. ADJUSTED LATCH CAMS AND GUIDE ARM PRELOAD IAW AMM 52-11. DOOR NOW OPS NORMAL  UNPRESSURIZED AND PRESSURIZED.
