Valve Spring Micrometer
I just got a Tavia valve spring micrometer from Summit and am dissapointed in the quality for the price i paid. The mic is suppost to be accurate to .001 but the graduations are to .005 .. At 1.700 the threads have .01 slop and when you turn the barrel the threads get tight then loose, tight then loose.. I know that acceptable valve spring tolerance is +- .02 , but this tool falls short of being called a micrometer in my opinion. Does any one know where i can get a quality mic?
