Abstract

See full text

A method of setting a tappet in an engine. The method includes setting a crankshaft at a predetermined crankshaft rotation angle. A cam coupled to the crankshaft is configured to provide cam lobe lift when the crankshaft is set at the predetermined crankshaft rotation angle. The cam lobe lift translates a tappet screw, coupled to the cam, towards a valve by a distance less than a gap defined between the valve and the tappet screw. The method also includes adjusting the tappet screw such that a zero gap tappet clearance is defined between the valve and the tappet screw.
