A feeler gauge??

Default Valve adjust tools
You need the wrench/screwdriver unit. Contact either Snap-On or Matco. Both have it and it sells for about $45 (that's what I paid). You also need the proper feeler gauges (<$10).
Snap-On and Matco have online catalogs and ordering too.

Default Tool number
The Snap-On number is YA8895. This is the correct tool for Civic and 5th gen Prelude rocker arm adjusting nuts. BTW: The MATCO number is the same (8895)
