Title: those with valve jobs...
Post by: Jace009gs on October 13, 2005, 08:19:12 PM
Hey I was wondering where you got your feeler gage....I need one for my yahama between .04-.05" and can't seem to fnd one under $50....what am I missing here?

Also did you find it easier to just measure the clearance before and jott it down on paper for each lobe then go back and change out the shims? I'm about to conduct a job on my project [ewww 16valves] w/ my trusty manual. I think I know what I'm doing. just need the tool to measure. It's basicaly a piece of metal you shove in there and find out the "thickness" of the cam's lobe and rocker arm...

HOLLY CRAP a valve gasket is $34 @ bike bandit......I miss my GS  :guns:
