You need two gauges: a .006" "go" gauge and a .008" "no go" gauge. When the valve is adjusted correctly, the .006 will go in and the .008 will not.

Cant get feeler gauge in between adjusting bolt and valve?

If you can't fit a feeler gauge between the adjusting bolt and the valve, it may indicate that the clearance is too tight. Double-check that the engine is at the correct temperature and that you are using the correct size of feeler gauge for the specified clearance. If necessary, try loosening the adjusting bolt slightly to create enough space for the gauge. If problems persist, consult the service manual for the specific engine to ensure proper adjustment procedures.
