Tappets and tappet housings

8.3.1 Tappets check

 

Use a surface plate and a dial gauge as shown in Fig. 8.7.
Check the perpendicularity of the plate C, making the tappet D rotate in the direction of the arrow.
The MAX value of wear allowed is 0.02 mm.


With a gauge, check the length of value A and B (Tab. 8.4). The MAX value of wear allowed is 0.08 mm.

8.3.2 Tappet housing check


Use an internal dial gauge to measure the diameter of the tappet housings X.
Use value of A detected (Par. 8.3.1) to calculate the clearance value (Tab. 8.4).
If the clearance values are not observed, replace the worn component.

 

  Important
  • Tab. 8.4 details the dimensional values of new components only.
