Adjusting tappets...1600CT

Post by fullsunian »

Hi, can anybody help me with the correct procedure for adjusting/preloading tappets/valve clearances on the above engine. Don't even know if they have hydraulic tappets :shock:
Thanks in advance...

In a bit of a rush but yes they have hydraulic tappets and the adjusting procedure is the same as for the other engines. Should be plenty on here about it if you do a quick search. Sorry I couldn't stick more on here, just going out! :D
