The photo is not of the exact product I am selling, but is very close. The differences are in the colour of the metal plating.
This tool is used to remove and replace valve shims from Toyota engines such as the 1HZ, 1HDT, 2LT-II, 2LTE, 3L, 1KZ, 1KZT, 1KZTE and related.
You will also require: a metric micrometer and a complete set of metric feeler gauges.
Note 1: Do not use a vernier caliper to measure your shims as it will not be accurate enough. You need to have a proper micrometer and measure at the center of the valve shim where most of the wear takes place.
Note 2: Your engine must me allowed to cool completely stone cold to the touch - typically allow 24 hours - to get a reliable valve clearance measurement.
This tool is a good quality copy of the much more expensive Toyota Tool (compare at prices ranging from $125 to $200 USD). I have tested this tool in my workshop on a 1HDT and it works well.
The only real difference between this and the actual Toyota tool is this one has a little more play in the threads, and the mechanism when unloaded is a little looser. In actual use, the differences are not noticeable.
For the home-user or professional user who is not going to be using this tool day in and day out, this is a great option.
