By the time you buy the tool, feeler gauges, tq wrench etc. You are much better and safer off by having someone who knows what they are doing perform the task with high quality tools.

Rep given. That is a pretty good find for that tool. My snap-on one was a lot more than that and is very similar. Valve adjustment is not difficult and people have to start learning sometime I guess.

I weld a long 10mm 3/8" socket to an 11mm 3/8" socket and then weld an A/C bolt to the side of the 11mm socket and then stick a screw driver through it. Works great for over 8 years and counting.
