tappets

Post by dreadnought » Sat Mar 25, 2017 5:35 pm

hi, i have a 04 grand vitara with the g16b 16v engine. now my question is, are the tappets adjustable or are they hydraulic lifter type. mine is a bit tappety and would like to quiten it down a bit. not afraid to do the job if they are adjustable, just dont want to take the rocker box of for nothing.

I know you can on the Jimny 1.3 G13BB engine, so I assume you would be able to on yours!
