I've followed the manuel's instructions but when turning the flywheel 2/3 turns anti-clockwise to line up the "t" and disengage the auto decomp the space is to small to fit any size on the fealer guage. 

Question: the rest of the XR riders, do you remove the left crankcase or just the allen bolt to see the "t", work only at TDC, turn flywheel anti-clockwise???
Any tips welcome, excuse spelling errors, posting from cell, it's late and I r boertjie.
