    Put an edge on a feeler gauge.

    I love them. I’ve used feeler gauges for anything from knives, shims through to reed valves in a compressor and vacuum pump. Cheap, readily available and flexible. Always keep a disposable set in the tool kit.

    Well now I’m not setting points or spark plugs, I have little need for them.

    Tomorrow attempt rear high mount light replacement (ouch I expect), idler pulley and tensioner pulley.
    IIRC, the video I've seen regarding the removal, recommends literally smashing the old light to get out.

    20L of lifeguard 6 ordered.
    New duraprene gasket and filter.
    Two valve body separator plates so I have the one I need once I have it apart without order delay.
    Gen2 zip kit, mechatronic seal and the other internal foam seals.

    Hoping it is worth it. Will do that next month.

    Mine had a 12mm shattered hole in it ..previous owner was quoted many hundreds to replace it..so he took the cost off the purchase price. I die grinded the hole and fitted a closed rubber grommet into the now rounded hole.

    It looks factory..like some sort of rear sensor or camera unit😎

    Yes..I am cheap😉

    Wouldn't get away with that here.

    First thing they check on a roadworthy is the vehicles lights,the slightest crack and its knocked back.

    Unless of course you know the inspector.
