 |
|
I currently have my engine out for some routine maintenance and would like to check the endplay. I do not own a dial indicator and I'm wondering if the tool in this link is worthy?

My concern is that there may some ambiguity in using feeler gauges to determine the reading.
If a dial indicator is considered far superior, I'd love some suggestions on what may be a good one to purchase online.
