Description
Overview:
Valve tappets for the Villiers BSA 65CC engine are precision components that transfer camshaft motion to the valves, keeping timing accurate and valve lift consistent. These genuine Villiers parts are made from robust, precision‐machined steel to resist wear in high-contact areas and provide dependable service life. Designed specifically for the BSA 65CC engine, they are a direct replacement under OEM No. 87 43, helping restore correct valve operation on classic small engines. As unused old stock, they may show light tarnish or storage dust, but remain functionally sound and ready to install. Suitable for maintenance, rebuilds, and restorations, they support smooth running, easier starting, and stable idle on engines such as the BSA 65CC, without the need for modifications when used in standard configurations.
