I was looking through some stuff for a VW Beetle I am thinking about selling. Came across this tool. Don't think I ever used it and am wondering if anyone knows what it is for?

It is a plug gapper, the disk rotates for different gaps, they work great as long as you don't squeeze to hard, you can crack the porcelain very easily.

Yup that's it. It squeezes the electrode against the feeler gauge. Can't believe I ever bought it. Another tool.
