Valve Tappet: Removal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Ford RV Cutaway, 2003 Ford Econoline, 2003 Ford E550 Super Duty, 2003 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2003 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
    NOTE: Keep the valve tappets in order so they can be installed in their original positions.
  1. Inspect and test each valve tappet separately to prevent intermixing of the valve tappets.

    Remove the appropriate cylinder head. Refer to CYLINDER HEAD LH  or CYLINDER HEAD - RIGHT .

  2. Remove the screws, the camshaft follower guides and the valve tappets.
