These tappets are without internals, requiring you to order the hydraulic unit separately to complete your installation. Proper adjustment of the tappets is crucial for engine efficiency; after initial adjustment, the pushrod may become tight, so it is essential to wait 5 to 15 minutes or longer for the hydraulic tappet to fully bleed off. During this process, ensure the engine is not rotated, as turning the engine while the pushrods are tight can cause damage. Once the hydraulic bleed-off is complete, the pushrod should spin freely with your fingers—never turn the engine over if the pushrods do not spin freely after adjustments. This procedure ensures optimal valve clearance and engine performance, making these tappets suitable for enthusiasts and mechanics working on vintage Harley Davidson FL engines. Crafted in the USA, these tappets meet quality standards and are a vital component for maintaining or restoring classic Harley engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDesigned for Harley Davidson FL models from 1953 to 1962\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eWithout internals; hydraulic unit sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eRequires proper adjustment to ensure free pushrod movement\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eManufactured in the USA for quality assurance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompatible with vintage Harley Davidson engines\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFitment:\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1953\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1954\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1955\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1956\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1957\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1958\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1959\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1960\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1961\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1962\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1963\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1964\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1965\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1966\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1967\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1968\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1969\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1970\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1971\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1972\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1973\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1974\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1975\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1976\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1977\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1978\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1979\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1980\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1981\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1982\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1983\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FL 1984\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FLT 1979\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FLT 1980\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FLT 1981\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FLT 1982\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FLT 1983\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1971\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1972\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1973\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1974\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1975\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1976\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1977\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1978\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1979\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1980\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1981\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1982\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1983\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FX 1984\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FXR 1982\u003cbr\u003e\nHarley Davidson FXR 1983\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jims","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44649840508970,"sku":"10-0634","price":90.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/2285\/8794\/files\/10-0634a.jpg?v=1785785108","url":"https:\/\/atticusgoods.com\/products\/jims-standard-hydraulic-tappet-part-2462-1-for-harley-davidson-fl-models","provider":"Atticus Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
