if you have a feeler-gauge set then -- YES you do ... just stack a 0.016" and a 0.011" together and you end up with 0.027".

or .013 + .014 All depends what you have in the set.

Same goes for the exhaust brake. i took 2 different sets apart and zip tied them together to permanently make the sizes I needed. I thought I got them off amazon, but can't find the order info. They're cheap enough that it's easier to take the sets apart then trying to fumble switching back and forth each time.

I use a cut off 7mm Allen wrench to set my exhaust brake. I didn't see the sense in spending big money on a 7mm feeler gauge and to pack all the proper feeler gauges together was too tedious. An Allen wrench mic'd out really close.

I was able to do the overhead today.Will I notice something if I screwed anything up?

Wasn’t able to do the injector leak test because the last screw was stripped but I did do a cylinder performance test and it showed each cylinder as passing.I’m going to have to get an extractor and remove the bolt tomorrow so I can do the test.

The lower bolt on the metering actuator is stripped.

I'm presuming the head stripped cause if the threads were stripped you'd be leaking fuel like crazy.
