I finally found a place that has a pocket t-square and a points ignition file.  They are at Northern Tool + Equipment at Spring Creek and 75 (Plano).

The pocket t-square has mm and inches.

Northern Tool is a chain and it id like HF but smaller and looks to have better made stuff.

Nowhere else around McKinney have I been able to put my hands on these.  So, Gordon, Broshi and anyone else around here need those, go there!
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

Yup, float adjustment.  Just like used in the link below.

 Is it not just real easy to lay it out on thin aluminum, cut it out and make a guage?

I prolly could but this was easier.  I have to set mine at 28mm instead of 26mm.  I would need to make two.
