yes, I am sorry, I did not specify. Replaced engine position sensor mount. It is slightly adjustable for height. Would like some idea of where to set it before i put the clutch housing back on.( 87 924S)

0.8 mm

Email me and I will email a copy of the procedure.

is that .8mm for both sensors or just the one over the pressure plate teeth?

yes, and it seems to say they both are the same clearance.

Nope, you adjust the brackett that holds them both so that the one that senses the flywheel teeth has .8 mm clearance.
