Separate Valve Stem Gauges Available
Usage:
All Caterpillar Engines
The valve stem gauges in the 6V0087 Valve Stem Gauge group are now available separately. Formerly, these gauges had to be ordered as a group.
Order Form SEHS7758 (instruction card) and the 5P4227 Tag Holder separately; these are included in the group but not with separate gauges.
See the chart that follows for correct gauge part numbers and acceptable dimensions. Remember that it is often difficult to measure slots with accuracy with other measuring tools.
