QUOTE(wndsnd @ Feb 12 2013, 08:59 AM)  Good enough for Crankshaft end play? Thanks John About the only way to know is to test them against "known" good dial indicators. And I mean dial indicators that have been professionally tested and certified to be accurate. On the other hand I don't think any of the engine builders I know would be happy measuring end play with anything but a professionally rated device. |
