I'm going to adjust my valves and the feeler gauge I have is a fan deck type
and it's short so it makes for a PITA to get up in there . Is there a long set of feeler gauges I haven't seen or has anybody custom made one to make the job a little easier ??? Thanks, jbart |

don't know of any extra long (or just long) feeler gauges. i use a set bought at home depot made by General tools (just like any feeler gauge set, probably a fan style like yours). well known that adjusting valves is a job that scars the knuckles, nothing around that, just buy a tube of Neosporin and be done with it.

I get my long feeler gauges from Snapper, but I'm sure Matco and Mac (if they're even still in business) have 'em. The Cap'n
