Tappet clearance on a 2t?

Postby ollieboy » Sat Dec 16, 2006 1:56 am

Does anyone know?

Also, what effect does incorrect adjustment of tappets have on an engine apart from crap fuel economy and crap performance?

Too much clearance makes them noisy, too little and can lack compression, burn valves etc
