Description
Overview:
The Tappet for Villiers C45 Engine (OEM No. 29890) is a genuine Villiers part designed to control the opening and closing of the engine valves with consistent timing. Made from durable metal for long service life, it transfers motion from the cam to the valve train to help maintain stable idle, smooth running, and reliable power delivery. Purpose-built for the Villiers C45, it matches the original dimensions and geometry for a proper fit without modification. Supplied as unused old stock from the period, it may show light cosmetic ageing such as surface tarnish, but remains functionally unused. This component is an essential item during engine rebuilds or routine maintenance where worn or pitted tappets can affect valve clearance and overall engine efficiency.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part for assured compatibility with the C45
- OEM reference 29890 for accurate identification
- Durable metal construction for wear resistance and long life
- Precision-made to maintain correct valve timing and lift
- Direct replacement part for straightforward installation
- Helps restore smooth running and consistent performance
- Suitable for service, overhaul, or restoration projects
- Unused old stock; may show superficial age-related marks only
Typical Applications:
Ideal for servicing, repairing, or restoring Villiers C45 engines used in compact plant, small machinery, and vintage garden or agricultural equipment. Replace worn tappets to stabilise valve clearances, reduce noise, and improve starting and running quality. Useful during full engine rebuilds, top-end refreshes, or preventative maintenance to keep classic machinery operating efficiently.
Also known as:
Often referred to as a cam follower, valve tappet, lifter, or pushrod lifter. In some workshop manuals it may be listed as a valve follower or cam lifter. These terms describe the same component that rides on the cam profile to operate the valve train.
