Valve adjusting tool

[pdugas]

Does anyone know if a valve adjusting tool is available in 14mm ? I searched the internet and can only find 10 & 12 mm .

You only need these three tools:

14mm plus screwdriver and feeler gauge. Thought there maybe something out there that would make it easier. 1982 FJ 60 with 2F engine uses 14mm .

All I use.

Except yeah, it's a 14mm

The tool you're thinking of is only available now in 12 mm. There was a 14 mm version but the company discontinued it and maybe you can find a used version on eBay but I've been looking for a while and haven't seen one.

Those offset feeler gauges shown make the access a little bit easier. But I also like to use a step feeler gauge (aka Go/No Go). The tip is thinner than the body. If the tip goes in but the body won't, you are at the correct gap.

This is the tool (sold under many brand names). Built in screwdriver and 12mm socket and allows for simple two-handed adjustment where as the normal method really requires three-hands.

Early F and 2F have 14mm adjust lock nuts, the > 4/85 have 12mm. Don't know what the 3FE has.

Yes that’s the tool I was looking for only in 14mm .

I've never seen one, but 14 mm is very close to 9/16 so you might be able to use that.

I don’t think anyone uses that tool. Ok, maybe 6 people.
