FS Valve adjustmet tools, P213 tool and feeler tips Options

[TTurboS]

We have available feeler gage tips for the P213 tool in the following sizes: .004, .005, .006, and .008. These tips cover all the VW and Porsche air cooled cars. We have the 7/8 inch version and 1 3/8 inch version. The short version is $2.15 each and the longer version is $2.90 with a minimum order of five (5) pieces. The P213 tool is available for $5.40. Many of my customers who have cars that have different clearances for their intake and exhaust valves buy two tools. It is a PITA to change the tips for each valve you adjust. The two screws can be aggravating.
Shipping is by Priority Mail ($5.25) Longer versions can be special ordered. Payment can be made using PayPal (you pay the 4% fee) or by sending a check or money order.

Procedures for doing valve adjustment on the above cars can be found on Pelicanparts.com, 356 Registry, and various other internet sites.

Verify these clearances for your car in your owner’s manual.

I am interested, just waiting to hear from those with experiences with the tool chime in as far as short or long. I have wanted to get one of the tools.

Hello,

Can you identify who you are and who is the manufacturer of those tools?
Typically these types of commercial ads should be in the member vendors section.

It would be interesting to see how well that tool works on a 914 with the limited clearance in that area.

He sold a car here recently. I've met him. Just a regular guy selling feeler gauges.

My experience with that design tool on the tight confines of a 914 was mediocre.

It worked really well on a 911 though

The wurth shape was. A little more 914 friendly

I adjust the 'BB' to zero lash (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

If I decide to order, I'd be getting:

* Three (3) P213 tools (3 @ $5.40 = $16.20)

... however, I don't think I'll ever need five of each of the blades though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

.004 (long) - (5 @ $2.90 = $14.50)
.006 (long) - (5 @ $2.90 = $14.50)
.008 (long) - (5 @ $2.90 = $14.50)

That means a minimum order of five of each blade thickness would be an additional $43.50 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) ... making the total with shipping a nickel less than $65.00 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)

Ted, let me know if you order these, I may tag along and split some of the blades and the shipping (boy are we CSOBs or what?) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Dang you opening up a shop Mark?
I probably order just 1 tool and one of .006 and .008 blade but not sure short or long ?

[euro911]

No, I'm closing a shop (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

If one has different clearances, I think it would be best to order separate tools already set up with the different thickness blades (it's only $5 for an additional P-213 tool). I deal with T1, T4, 356, 912 and 911 motors, so three separate tools would be best for my needs.

But, if I have to purchase five of each blade, I might look around for something else, unless a few others here want to partner for some of the blades (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

If you order two P-213 tools and pay for the shipping, I'll give you the two blades you need - how's that sound?

Then maybe I can sell off some of the other extra blades to others here that want to buy just the tool(s) and want some extra blades? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

[913B]

Ok, I am game I will buy 2 tool and pay for shipping, hopefully the $5 shipping will cover both our orders.

TTurbo S is that alright we combine our shipping ?
