Confused Blush Dumb question Banging head

I was being careful with the new tool.... and didn't realize my mistake until today. At only .010" deep the shim could become dislodged, especially on the exhaust side.... but what I was reading as .010", was actually .090". I was just looking at the big needle, and didn't look at the small one... DOH Huh


So with .090" depth, if you have the shims set correctly, you can't toss a 20V shim

You can |Sad .... OR you can ask for help!!!
