Default OT: Snap-On valve adjustment tool.

I've been searching Honda-Tech and Snap-On.com for the past 20 minutes and came up with nothing. Does anyone know the part number to the Snap-On tool that has a screwdriver with a 10mm wrench built into one? If you have the part number or can give me the link to Snap-On's website I'd appreciate it. Thanks guys/gals.

um, how about http://www.snapon.com ?

EDIT2 - Here's one they list for jam nut type valve adjustment, I think that's the one you need.

I bought mine from the Honda dealer parts counter, I just bought the wrench 1/2 of the tool, figuring I could use my own flat head screwdriver and 17mm box end wrench. Pretty easy to use .

part # YA8895, the snap-on site is kinda confusing. it lists this part # as being the 12mm, but its really the 10mm

I'm in the exact same situation. I got a torque wrentch for X-Mas and just ordered the valve tool/feeler guages. I'll be ordering the DK20 jack on Monday, and no garage either...

lol, especially the dark side.

I live in VA, and I use my parents garage for most of my work. They will be surprised to see a 65 lb jack arrive on their doorstep in a few days.

But how do you order from Snap-On? They require a "Dealer Name" and a "Shop Name" to create an account. What do I write?

You must be in the wrong part of their website. You can order direct as a consumer without any of that.

Does someone have an URL to where I can buy Snap-On tools without the jibba jabba? When I use the Snap-On url at the top of the post and put the stuff in my cart and then try to do the New User Registration it wants a "dealer name" "shop name" etc.

I get this every time:

I got it, you have to click "no" at the top, sorry for the probs. Why do they say all these fields are required when you can just click them away?

You can also make your own valve adjustment tool. If anybody is interested, I'll post some pics of the one I made.

I've been searching Honda-Tech and Snap-On.com for the past 20 minutes and came up with nothing. Does anyone know the part number to the Snap-On tool that has a screwdriver with a 10mm wrench built into one?

Why dont just use a 10mm socket and rachet? Thats what I used to do my valve adjustment and it worked fine.
