Need initial tappet clearance setting for FD35 after part rebuild

The valve clearance specification for a 1998 Hyundai H100 2.6 diesel bakkie is:
Intake valve clearance: 0.25 - 0.35 mm (0.010 - 0.014 in) Exhaust valve clearance: 0.45 - 0.55 mm (0.018 - 0.022 in)
The tappet setting for this engine will depend on the specific valve clearance measurements for each valve. If the valve clearances are found to be outside of the specification, the tappet settings will need to be adjusted accordingly. It is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's service manual for detailed instructions on how to perform the adjustment procedure.

Hello Lee,

Use FD42 tappet or valve clearance to search existing answers on this site... there ARE EXISTING answers here...

Initially they look different... mm & inches... but read them slowly

you will go far

check the tappet clearance when hot should be .012" inlet and
.14" exhaust
if the engine has a lot of hours on it , it may need a pump rebuild or the injectors rebuilt but I suspect a valve problem from the tappet clearance being to tight cold

My initial sweep of the web gives Inlet 0.010 thou, Exhaust 0.008 thou.
You would need to check this because industry norm is to have the greater clearance on the exhaust valve because of the increased heat expansion.

Saxo 1.1 dessire anyone no clearances on tappets mine are 0.2 front 0.4 back and won't start

Hydraulic tappets are normally zero lash ... not adjustable. That is why they are hydraulic ... the lifter takes up all the 'clearance' and is automatically adjustable.

need the tappet clearance for a mk4 2L cortina motor?

When setting tappets, it has to be born inind that the valve stem wears an indentation into the face of the rocker. This prevents a really accurate tappet adjustment, so the customer is right again. If you do not posess a tappet setting dial gauge, a normal engineers dial gauge will do just as well. The procedure is the same as using your feeler gauge except that you set the dial gauge up on the cylinder head with the pointer resting on the head of the rocker. Press down fairly firmly on the rocker valve end and zero the gauge. Next lift up on the rocker and read off the clearance, from the gauge, Use a magnetic base to support your gauge and repeat the pocedure for each valve pair.

The Exhaust 0.0018 to 0.0030 stem to guide clearance.
