【Neofactory】LISLE Spark Plug Gap Tool Review
400 yen, I feel like I've thrown it down the drain

When I opened it up, the thinnest measurement wire came off when I removed the ShrinkFilm from the packaging I did
The two Rivet crimpers on the body were also inadequate, and I tightened them up with Hammer and Punch However, just to be sure (when you stop), with Caliper of the JIS standard product, the thickness of Wire is Is that what it says? Measurement …
As a result, it's a completely unrecommendable product
I'm giving it a no star rating because it's $400 and a waste of time and effort to return it

Versatile Tool for your Spark Plug Maintenance Needs
About quality and texture: I am happy with the quality of the spark plug gap tool from Lisle, made from a steel construction with the assembly secured with rivets. About the feeling of use: I have used this tool to correctly measure and adjust the gapping of my spark plugs quickly and accurately. The combination of the measurement wires and adjustment tabs makes this tool very versatile for spark plug maintenance needs. Products to buy together: Some more tooling like a tappet adjustment wrench would also be desirable to purchase along side the spark plug gap tool to simplify these processes when it comes time for your annual maintenance. Difficulty of installation: The process to install takes a few minutes, place the measurement wire between the center electrode and ground electrode to obtain the clearance and use the adjustment tab to open or close the gap by adjusting the ground electrode. Not difficult to do. Cost performance and comparison with other products: Good costing as this is a quality made spark plug gap tool from Lisle that has with stood numerous usage without failure and much quicker and easier to use and read then feeler guages. About shipping and packaging: Sea frieght is my preferred method of shipping due to the lower cost and it is fantastic that it has returned as an option once again so I can put my money toward parts and not high shipping costs. Webike kept me updated on the status of my order up to when it shipped. The parcel arrived within the expected date range and was well packaged with no chance of the part being damaged. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing: Good for common sized gaps but may not be suitable for every situation unlike a set of feeler guages. View detail
This tool is very convenient for the task
About quality and texture, I can confirm that the quality is good and that the material used is steel for the entire tool with a mixture of wire to measure the gap and plate to adjust the gap. About the feeling of use, I had previously used feeler guages to measure my spark plug gaps and a small flat blade screwdriver to open up the spark plug gap if required, this tool is very convenient for the task now. Products to buy together, Some new spark plugs from NGK preferably would be ideal to also add to your cart when purchasing this tool so you can have a strong spark from your fresh and correctly gapped spark plug. Difficulty of installation, I can say the fitment of the spark plug gap tool for my installation was very easy due to the simple nature of it's use caused by it's convenient and compact design. Cost performance and comparison with other products, The pricing of the spark plug gap tool is great. You receive a product with a design that makes checking and adjusting spark plug gaps easier then using feeler guages at a price that anyone can afford to add to their toolbox. About shipping and packaging, My order was shipped within 48 hours of me placing the order and I received a few emails advising me of the status up until the order was dispatched. I find the link supplied to track my order very useful and the order arrived within the estimated date range. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing, I have no concerns or cautions when purchasing from Webike. I cannot recommend Webike enough for the majority of your biking needs. They not only sell aftermarket parts and bike gear but also OEM parts for your repairs and servicing needs. View detail
First PlugGap adjustment in 30 years
When I was in Normal state, I never thought about PlugGap adjustment. ・・・・
I bought this to adjust my Gap from the normal 0.7mm or so of the Defferential Gearo to the 1.1-1.3mm of the Uotani Full power designation.
I thought that I would get the product which Mr. SANKEN who thought that it was made of POWER BUILT releases, but
I bought this one of the same shape because it was out of stock.
There was a negative evaluation of other products shaped like a bottle opener that the adjustment part was damaged, etc., so I decided to use this one.
Before working with the production Plug (DENSO IX24), it is practice with the stock product (NGK D8EA) that I had purchased probably almost 30 years ago.
First, the grounding electrode is erected.
Bend the horizontal part in the direction that the Gap becomes narrow because the end part becomes too open as it is.
Finally, the building site is raised again and fine adjustments are made.
In this way, we made adjustments to the 8 practice Plug and 4 production Plug "I think my nails got a little bent. It's about as strong as you can get.
However, there are four places of the jaw for adjustment, and it is not an expensive article, so I think that it is OK to replace it once a year.
It may be hard to see, but here is a failed product. I damaged the insulator around the center electrode by putting my fingernail on the wrong way.
I'm glad I practiced with the inexpensive OEM specified Plug before the more expensive production Plug, which is an order of magnitude different.
from the start Don't adjust the gap on the thin Plug because it may damage the center electrode. If you are a beginner in maintenance like me, please be careful because the "Mere Old Man" is the Manufacturer's SChest.
