Has anybody ever used one of these? Do they work? Are they worth the money? .W.

They discussed this on LRSOC a while back.
Seems you cant do the exhaust valves on S1 engines, with them.

Tried a link but it needs you to login.
The consensus was , most stick to a feeler gauge.

I've got one.
No complaints.
Quite speedy when you have to do ALL the settings e.g. after a head-off head-on.
Normal servicing, I find a feeler gauge quicker because the gaps rarely change.
If I've got a noisy one, I track it down with my "stethoscope" ( a length of garden hose stuck in my earhole) then use this device to rack it down, while idling, click by click till it shuts up.
But, as observed, useless on a side valve set up!

Never seen this before. Being a retired spanner I have done hundreds probably thousands on tappet adjustments with feeler gauges, even old grey Holden engines, where it was done with the engine running, and all have worked ok.
