FAQs

What is the primary use of this feeler gauge?

This feeler gauge is primarily used for measuring clearances and tolerances in engines, particularly in OHC (Overhead Camshaft) configurations.

What types of measurements does this gauge provide?

The feeler gauge provides both Imperial (inches) and Metric (millimeters) measurements.

What does 'offset' mean in the context of this feeler gauge?

The offset refers to the angled tips of the blades, which are designed to reach and measure in areas where straight blades cannot fit, especially in OHC engines.

What is the blade size range?

The blades range in size from 0.008" to 0.026" (0.203 to 0.660mm).

How do I clean the feeler gauge?

Wipe the blades clean after each use with a clean, dry cloth to remove any oil, grease, or debris.

Is there a warranty for this feeler gauge?

Yes, it comes with a lifetime guarantee.

Can this gauge be used on all types of engines?

While it's suitable for many engines, its offset design is especially useful for OHC engines. Always check the engine's service manual to ensure compatibility.

How should I store the feeler gauge?

Store the feeler gauge in its protective case or a clean, dry location to prevent damage and corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Blades don't fit into the gap.

Ensure you are using the correct blade size for the measurement. Refer to the engine's service manual for the proper gap specifications.

Measurements are inaccurate.

Make sure the blades are clean and free of debris. Check for any damage to the blades that could affect the measurement. Replace the gauge if necessary.

Blades are difficult to insert.

The offset blades can be tricky. Try different angles to find the best approach. Ensure the engine components are correctly aligned.
