NOTE:
There are two numbers on the valve tappet, one is date code and the other is valve tappet thickness.
NOTE:
The date code “R0605” represents the year made (R), the month (06) and the day (05).
NOTE:
A tappet with the number N650 has the thickness of 3.650 mm.
NOTE:
Select tappets using this formula: tappet thickness =
measured clearance + the existing tappet thickness - nominal clearance.
NOTE:
The nominal clearance is:
-
intake: 0.25 mm (0.0095 in).
-
exhaust: 0.36 mm (0.0142 in).
NOTE:
The acceptable clearances after being fully installed are:
-
intake: 0.19-0.31 mm (0.0075-0.0122 in).
-
exhaust: 0.3-0.42 mm (0.0118-0.0165 in).
Select the closest tappet size to the ideal tappet thickness available and mark the installation location.
-
If any tappets do not measure within specifications, install new tappets in these locations.
