Bill Hughes Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Hi all would anyone know if my focus engine has hydraulic tappets please, I know it has a cam chain as opposed to a belt, any advice would be appreciated Thanks Bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JW1982 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 The 1.8 / 2.0 Duratec HE engine has solid tappets without shims. The valve clearance is adjusted by replacing the complete tappet (which are available in about 50 different sizes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Hughes Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 Many thanks Wilco, do you know at what service/mileage they need checking please, sorry to be so vague but I have only just acquired the car, it has service history from new but not all Ford and there has never been a mention of tappets, thats why I thought they might be hydraulic Cheers Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
