For the do-it-yourself maintenance group, this is a good one to have.
Restore of immovable ESTRELLA.
Final touches, Tappet adjustments.
Oil leak is gone but Engine noise is annoying.
However, I need to prepare Thickness Gauge for Tappet adjustment, so I bought this one.
[What happens if I don't make the Tappet adjustment?
Of course, if the tappet noise is too loud, it will bother you, but if you leave it as it is, the wider the gap, the stronger the impact of the blow, and the tappet clearance will widen more and more, which will cause the starting performance to deteriorate and the motorcycle to gradually go out of tune, so adjustments are necessary. 。
What is a mismatch in Tappet clearance?
When the Valve clearance (Tappet) gap becomes Large, a hammering sound begins to be heard. 。 Sound is emitted when Engine is cold, but disappears when warmed up. 。 In such a case, the gap is large, but as it warms up, the gold expands and the gap becomes small, and the sound disappears.
Symptoms
When I stopped at a traffic light, the car stalled while holding the clutch and dropping the GEAR.
In accordance with the Fat Engine Rotation "Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle." and strange noise.
Procedure 〜For ~ESTRELLA
(1) Unload the Tank from the vehicle body.
↓
(2) Cook must be Off 。 By turning it Off, you can lower the hose without wasting Gasoline dripping out (some Gasoline in the hose will come out immediately after the hose is removed).
↓
(3) ESTRELLA can be adjusted to the upper dead center by removing the Cover and turning this Screw. 。 Top dead center is simply the state where the Piston is at the top.
When adjusting the tappet, the position of the piston must be adjusted to the upper dead center. 。
↓
(4) Remove the Plug so that no compression is applied.
I have to move it with no Engine on it.
↓
5) Front Tappet Cover. 。 It can be adjusted by removing here.
↓
(6) Loosen the lock nut attached to the head first, and when the center screw can be turned, it is OK. 。
At this point, it is normal to move the Tappet by hand and hear a chica-chica sound. 。 If it does not sound kachica-chi, either the upper dead center is not correct or the adjustment is gapped considerably.
↓
(7) Insert the Thickness Gauge into the gap and align it. 。 Strictly speaking, this is the process of adjusting the gap between the Valve and the Arm that is pushing the Valve to the proper value.
↓
Clearance on the exhaust side is 0.17 to 0.22mm 。 If the Gauge is pinched by inserting 0.20mm of Thickness Gauge and closing the Screw at the Center, the Gauge will be pinched, and if the Gauge is moved in that state and it feels a little stuck, it is OK. 。
↓
Clearance on the intake side is 0.10 to 0.15mm 。 The intake side may be a little more difficult to do because it is more intricate in location.
↓
(10) To be sure, make one more rotation of the screw with the upper dead center aligned, and then align it again.
[After adjustment
When I drove it, it no longer stalled and blew up better!
I think a single cylinder can be done by an amateur.

A must for Valve clearance
I purchased this for Valve clearance adjustment.
The part requiring Thickness Gauge is essential because it is not possible to measure it with other measuring tools such as Caliperetc.
Kowa Seiki is a company that I had not heard much about, but it is a very long-established tool manufacturer established in 1952, and it seems to be a company that manufactures not hand tools that we ordinary users use, but special tools and equipment that motorcycle and automobile factories install as equipment. It seems to be a company that manufactures not hand tools for us ordinary users, but special tools and equipment that are installed as equipment in motorcycle and automobile factories.
Unlike Dial gauge and Micro meter, Thickness Gauge does not deviate so much.
However, if rusting occurs, the thickness can easily change with rust, so only that point should be noted.
Since it is not a tool that is used so routinely, it is better to store it in Vinyl after use with a rust inhibitor, or if not available, a lubricant smeared all over it.
It has been about 10 years since I purchased it and it still remains rust-free.

The feel is perfect.
After use, moisten it with engine oil and place it in a small bag to prevent rusting.

[How is it used?
To the Deer Baron. "The old Motorcycles are getting pretty crazy with Valve Clearance. I was ad-vise and bought it in a hurry.
It used to be a regular item at the nearby Home center car parts corner...
Was the one you received as per Image?
Simple & Compact, as per Image.
How was your experience with it?
It's nothing to write about, it's just a normal chic Snes Gauge, because the purpose of using this tool is clear. "It's so easy to use." And "It's so hard to use. I don't think you can make a product that says
[Points to note]
If you handle it roughly, the Plate will be bent and it will be difficult to use the same Plate next time.
Well, if it gets bent and hard to use, you can just buy a new one...
How did it compare to other products?
Since the purpose of use is clear and limited, there is little difference from other companies' products.

[ITEMS TO BUY TOGETHER
I think that the person who needs this tool is already able to do some maintenance, and I don't think that it is necessary to buy it.
[Opinions and requests to Manufacturer
I hope you will continue to sell it at an affordable price.

Engine for Clearance
This is my first time buying a Thickness Gauge

I thought they were arranged in order, but there's a thin Size in the middle, and a thicker Size in between them There is a
Perhaps a toolbox or something to prevent it from getting bent out of shape? Various patterns are available, so you can't go wrong with this product

Required enough for SR 400's Tappet adjustment
I bought it for adjusting the Tappet of SR 400.
It is necessary and sufficient as Gauge, there is also a sense of security that it is domestic production.
It can also be used as a consumable item because it is cheap ◎

This price in made in japan.
Purchased for SR 400's Valve clearance. (0 in SR. 1 / 0. Only 15 is necessary)
Japan This price with quality. I feel sorry for my craftsmen.
However, in Web images Quantity : 1 Set of 7pcs. It seems to be, but in fact it is 0. 3 / 0. 04 / 0. 05 / 0. 06 / / 0. 07 / 0. 08 / 0. 1 / 0. 15 / 0. 2 (Stacking order) Quantity of : 1 Set of 9pcs. is.

Tentatively necessary first
Piston ring is indispensable for gaps and valve clearance measurements. Even if you do not have many Size cards, you can basically Cover in combination. If you do not apply Oil first, hard and thin Blade will bend.
Well, it is inexpensive so you can buy it at consumable item Level even if it is torn.

With this, the sound will be lost.
I used it for GORILLA, MONKEY. Bore upetc. It uses Engine for budding Tappet since we finished the assembly. Thickness Gauge had heard from seniors from old days, but I used the Thickness Gauge that I had been tightened several times with a stingy but I had an affordable KOWA Thickness Gauge So I bought it.
The ease of use of the product is not much different from the previous Thickness Gauge, but I thought it would be better if there was a little more length. Anyway, the price is cheap and it will be saved.

For Valve clearance measurement ...
In the item description, "measurement range 0. 04mm 0. 05mm 0. 06mm 0. 07mm 0. 08mm 0. 1mm 0. 30mm Quantity : 1 Set of 7pcs. There is, but 0. 15 mm and 0. Since there are 2 pieces of 20 mm, Quantity : 1 Set of 9pcs. is. This item, Length is 100 mm and somewhat longer and easy to use.
In the opened state, the root is hard and the Thickness Gauge is difficult to put in and out. First of all, applying Oil or a rust preventive penetrating agent etc. to this root part makes it possible to rotate the thrusul and the Thickness Gauge, making it easier to use. 【Made in Japan】 I feel reliable!

Is it easy to use?
I used it for Tappet adjustment of CUBEngine. Width was also exactly good, I adjusted for Tappet for the first time but it was able to be used without problems. It also helped to adjust the gap of the ignition plug. Small It is saved because it does not bulk. View detail
It is a lifetime if you use it with Motorcycle
【What made you decide the purchase?】 It was cheap in JAPAN.

[Is there anything I was disappointed about?] None
【Hope for Manufacturer - Please tell me if there are any improvement points】 None
【Have you compared items?】 Asian cheap Gauge

It was the only condition of Kowa if it was a condition that it was exactly good at domestic production and Compact.
It is made with very high precision, and it fits snugly when you folding it.
Although I have bought Asia's cheap Synness with another business, although I can measure it
It was hard to put in and out and it was hard to use.
I might think that the performance of loading and unloading is not related to the measurement, but wait a moment!
Since there are many times to use multiple sheets in a stack, the performance of taking out and taking out is related to Large as usability convenience!
This is a bad thing to do Sickness is getting irritated.
The durability is also quite high "Do not rust" "Do not press hard" "Do not fold" The three iron rules of

It is a pleasure to buy such a high precision measuring instrument at around 500 yen.

It is good to make it for the price. Attention to storage method
Case is also included
I think that there is no problem with accuracy.
This was bad treatment of me
Once it got wet in the rain so let it dry
When folded and kept, it got rust lightly when looking next. I think that drying should be insufficient, rust prevention ingredients flowed, Oil should be applied, etc. I think that I should have taken care..

It is used for Tappet adjustment. Although it is natural, since a Gauge is thin, it adheres mutually and is hard to take out, but it is found useful.
