    Valve clearance tapper feeler gauge question

    hello,

    I was watching youtube videos about how to do valve adjustment and camshaft timings but I got stuck when my manual says following ( check photo )  Valve guide clearance and I can not find Tappet Valve Feeler Gauge which starts with 0.010 MM.

    The smallest gauge I found on internet starts with 0.02 MM, I dont know what to do, where to find that 0.010 mm gauge








    Please help finding the gauges or tell me  what are the other options.



    Thanks

    Not sure you need the .01 gauge, you are looking to determine what current clearances are and to adjust them to something near the middle of the allowable clearance range.

    Understood, I think i put the wrong photo up, thanks so much.

    Do you know where to get shims from for valve clearance adjustments?
