Valve Lifter

A valve lifter (or tappet) is a critical engine component. It sits between the camshaft and valves, converting the camshafts rotation into linear motion to open and close valves. And ensures proper engine timing and performance, often using hydraulic pressure for quiet, self-adjusting operation. And can be mechanical or hydraulic, with failures often causing a distinct tapping noise.
