Feeler Gauges (in stock somewhere?)

Have to check the valves and am looking for feeler gauges to check them with. I am in the west so somewhere out this way would be ideal. Sturgess doesn't have them in stock but will order them if I want but they don't know what the measurements are on them. Burlington cycle has them in stock but the only one they have only goes up in .05. I am hoping to find something with a little more exact measurements.

Anyone buy a good set recently? How much and from where? Thanks.

Should be one right near you.

Try anywhere that sells machine shop tools... crappy tire should also carry them...

I'm not sure if you are looking for metric or imperial but I found decent metric sets very hard to find. I ended up going to Lee Valley and bought a set of imperial feeler gauges that are good down to 0.001" (0.0254mm). My GS500 has the valve clearance specs in metric (0.03 - 0.08mm) but it's easy enough to convert.

Crappy Tire actually has a better selection of Metric or SAE than Princess Auto

Thanks guys.

Online I found that the PA ones were better and one dollar cheaper. At PA they have a standard and a deluxe. CT is out of stock near me so I will swing by PA and check them out.

Lee Valley has them too. I buy from them all the time.
