Description
Overview:
The Tappet Cap to fit Villiers C45 Engines is a Genuine Villiers part designed to restore correct operation of the valve train on C45 stationary engines. Made from durable metal for long service life, it replaces worn, dented, or missing caps so the tappet area is protected and clearances are maintained. As unused old stock (vintage), the item may show light tarnishing from storage, but performance is unaffected. This cap supports smooth running by helping to keep the contact surfaces true and by resisting the heat and vibration found in small engines. It is suitable for maintenance and restoration of Villiers C45 engines commonly used in classic garden and light construction machinery, where an accurate, factory‐spec fit is important for reliability.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part for assured compatibility and fit on C45 engines
- Durable metal construction to withstand heat, vibration, and regular use
- Helps maintain correct tappet contact and smooth valve operation
- Supports reliable starting and steady running by preserving clearances
- Direct replacement for worn or damaged originals to restore function
- Unused old stock; may exhibit minor storage tarnish only
- Straightforward to fit with basic hand tools (no modifications typically required)
- Suitable for period-correct restorations and regular maintenance
- Engineered to original specification for long-term reliability
- Helps protect tappet components from accelerated wear
Typical Applications:
Used during routine servicing or overhaul of Villiers C45 engines in vintage mowers, rotavators, compact pumps, generators, and stationary equipment. Ideal when rebuilding engines that have suffered wear, lost parts, or poor adjustments, and where an OEM-spec cap is needed to help restore smooth, efficient valve train operation.
Also known as:
Valve tappet cap, tappet screw cap, valve lifter cap, cam follower cap, tappet adjuster cap, engine valve cap. These terms are commonly used for the small cap that covers or interfaces with the tappet components to maintain proper contact and reduce wear.
