  Tappet Valve

• Description:

  This genuine Ford valve tappet is a direct-acting bucket lifter for the 1.5L and 1.6L EcoBoost Sigma four-cylinder engine used in 2013-2019 Ford Escape, Fiesta, Fusion, and Transit Connect. It sits in the cylinder head bore between the camshaft lobe and the valve stem, transferring cam lift to open the valve while providing the wear surface the lobe rides against. This engine uses solid shim-over-bucket valve adjustment, so the tappet is supplied in selective-fit graded sizes; the DAZA suffix identifies one specific graded thickness, and the grades are not interchangeable. During valvetrain service the technician measures valve clearance and selects the graded tappet that brings clearance back within factory specification. Owners and shops need this part when a valvetrain tick or tap develops, when a noisy cold start points to out-of-spec clearance, or after a cylinder head rebuild or camshaft job requires re-shimming. Ford catalogs the component as Tappet - Valve. Always measure clearance and order the exact grade required for your engine; installing the wrong grade leaves clearance out of spec and can cause noise or valvetrain damage. As a genuine Ford part it holds the precise ground thickness and hardened face the selective-fit process depends on.
