definitely an offset feeler gauge for my 97 accord DX. I tried the straight gauges before and it is really awkward for the rear side intake valves. There is no enough space if you don'twant to remove the injector rail and wires. So I switched to the offset ones and they have things much easier. But most offset gauges sold by auto storesdoes not have blades as many as those of straight ones. Finally I found one with enough blades (0.010", 0.011", 0.012", and 0.013")at Pepboy.
