hey guys i bought a cd manual for my 06 wolvy 450 it states 0.06mm-0.10mm for the intake vavle and 0.16mm-0.20mm for the exhaust vavle.now i bought a craftsman feeler gauge but i have a problem because the number on the gauge dont match my manuals specs the gauge has .006mm and i need 0.06 mm did i get the wrong feeler gauge?

 

Sounds like you're confusing metric and standard measurements.

The guage is probably in SAE/standard units and it's .006 inches, not mm. If the guage doesn't have mm marked you can just convert the manual's specifications to standard units (inches) and then use the corresponding feeler on the guage.

 

welll the feeler gauge says mm in the blades

 

what i dont understand is that on the back of the feeler gauge package it list inches and millimeter in this order

inch milli
.0015 .04
.002 .05
exc exc

but on the actual gaguge it has diffrent measurments whys this?
