Now Fred, please explain how a feeler gauge can be used on a solid cam valve train while the engine is running. In my 40+ years, I have yet to hear of that. Hydraulic cams can certainly be adjusted with the engine running. I have used a feeler gauge many times on a running hydraulic engine to identify a faulty lifter.
