When the three-blade plunger is pressed against a flat surface, the gauge should read the set number stamped on the back of the indicator.

Bore gauges are typically calibrated with a setting ring and come in two types: simple and direct-measuring. Simple bore gauges are used with a caliper to transfer the hole measurement, while the more complex gauges take the measurement directly, and display it through a vernier, dial, or digital display. Bore gauges have a two- or three-point contact, indicating how many points on the gauge head touch the inside of the bore. Pistol-grip bore gauges are used for fast, single-handed operation with repeatable results from one operator to another.

Find Best Price at Amazon"There is a red sticker on the front of the box that says "Check instructions for quantity of anvils", but the instructions are very unclear about how many are supposed to be included and where they are stored."
"However, there is not much label indicating it's a Fowler other than the indicator."
"Nice Bore gauge, As noted elsewhere there should be 3 blank spaces for the anvils, the 2 smallest of each type are shipped fitted to the heads, one (the longest) is not there in the inch set = 3 blank spaces."
"Instructions could be clearer."
"You need an additional caliber to set the base measuring point and it will then give you the difference between the base and what you are measuring."
"Does a very good job for what I need it for."
"Good piece and helped my engine build."
"Update to original review below: After returning the instrument described below, I bought Fowler's 52-646-500 which has much better accuracy and appears to be suitable for engine work. Would be nice if Fowler or Amazon were aboveboard and honestly and OPENLY disclosed in the advertising that the accuracy of this gauge is only plus or minus .0009 inches, and repeatability is only guaranteed to be within plus or minus .0004 inches which values essentially make this "measuring" tool useless for any actual precision work on a modern engine where, say, the allowed out of round is .0004!!"
