HYDRAULIC VALVE ADJUSTER SYSTEM
The engine is equipped with hydraulic valve tappets. Hydraulic tappets do not require adjustment and help the engine to run
quieter by keeping valve clearance at zero at all engine temperatures and engine speeds up to redline.
The tappets are continuously supplied with air-bled oil from the de-foaming chamber in the rocker arm holder where oil passes
through.
