Does anyone have a photo of the proper spark(ing) plug/tappet feeler gauge that was supplied in the BN2 and BN2 tool kit? I have all of the other tools but I'm coming up short on this one.
Thanks

I think the tool kit was as supplied in the A70
I don't think a feeler gauge set was included,
I've seen some gauge sets that were just different wire thicknesses for the plugs,
Most early feeler gauge sets I've seen were about 5-7 leaves from about 10 thou to about 30 thou in a metal cover with a plastic/metal pin/swivel setup
about 1/2" wide, and about 3" long and about 1/4" thick including cover

The photo on page 61 of the Gary Anderson book, though small, seems to show a 2-feeler gauge. Anybody have a better photo, an accurate description or an extra one to sell?!

I believe Clarke Spares in Doylestown, Pa. has them.

It doesn't show up on their web site. Is it in the paper catalog they seem to have available?
