Thanks for offering this service to our members here.

Just curious, does the EE in your member name stand for electrical engineer? My late father taught EE at the U of I for over 50 years.

I will be interested soon. I need to check the clearance, and the current shims. I am kicking myself for losing the paper that I had with the shims I got last time. Doh.   :dunno

Thanks for the offer, Jeff.  At some point I may sell these on eBay, but until then let's see if there is any interest in this idea...

1 each, of all 25 sizes, shipped Priority Mail for $75.

I want to thank Jim as well. He supplied me with 25 shims promptly and with great communication. I am ready for my first attempt at checking/adjusting the valves
