hard to know without seeing in person but how are the stringers attached to the ledger? sitting on top? toe nailed? most of the deck building i see these days the house shingles are removed below the level of the ledger board. i am thinking if you can somehow pull the rotted shingles out from the bottom that will give you a little space that you could then shim out with washers or pressure treated. spacing the ledger is not the only critical step in preventing rot but flashing , gutters as prev suggested and making sure that the deck has a slight pitch that drains AWAY from the house are key. a great forum for DIY stuff is doityourself.com , post over there in the deck forum and you will get really good input.
