Tappet adjustment tool?

Post by trent »

My mechanic is a awsome all round mechanic and will adjust the tappets in my GPX to the specified measurements given on the site, but i need to track down/ purchase the specific tool required to do the job. Does anyone know where i can source one from?? Please!

You won't find one except from Mitsubishi Japan, & i don't think your mechanic would have any chance to get one from them.

What my mechanic did was custom made his own, you spend less time making one then seach for one. :wink:
