Title: FOUND: two tappets (the thing that holds valve shims)
Post by: ecpreston on January 31, 2010, 01:33:24 PM
anyone got two good tappets? Two of my exhaust ones apparently got a little hot and stick a bit now.  :oops:

Would those be what I've seen commonly called the buckets (as in shim-over-bucket style)?  I have a spare head that I could pull a couple from.  What would be a fair price?

I have some from a gs450. They are in great shape. I'm not sure if they will fit the 500, but if you can find out and want them let me know.

yes, the buckets. Apparently that's what most people call 'em.  :dunno_white: :cookoo: :cheers:
Another GStwinner is hooking me up, so it looks like I'm set for now, thanks!
I'll be back for shims....  :icon_razz:
