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?
 
Well, I was just about to go get my feeler gauge to take pictures of to help the original questioner when I saw the original question was me in 2009! I found the proper gauge on EBay and haven't seen one in a couple of years. Still looking for the oiling adaper for my Tecalemit grease gun and a 3/16" x 1/4" box spanner...
