Where can i get some new Tappets?

The tappets on my DX (D13B1) are noisey, i dont wanna buy some from Honda coz they will be ££££££ or $$$$ in most of your cases.

So does anyone know where else i can buy some and a rough price of what they would be ?

Cheerz in advance

What the hell are tappetes ? if i knew what they were i would tell you where to get em

valve tappets i think u call em or just valves, anyway the engine ticks like fuck

tappets eh... have you tried adjusting the valve lash? that is more than likely your problem....

wot is the proper spacing for em ?

got a manual? i don't here... i want to say like .05 intake and .02 exhaust... but i don't remember from when i did my new cam...

no i aint got a manual, haynes dont make one, i will go into honda over the road and ask em if need be,

my ZC clicked like a bitch when I first got it... got the vavle spacing adjusted but still clicked... alot less... but still cliked... i find that alot with honda engines usualy quite noisy at idle.

ah right ok, i will have to have em spaced, then service it :(, gotta run it on mobil 1 , its been run on mobil 1 for the last 13 years, £32 for 4 litres or a gallon here ...thats about $51

I adjusted mine a couple of months ago ... idles nice ever since.

all honda engines tick somewhat. they use mechanical lifters which tick by design.
