What is the tappet clearance on a ford transit 2.5 lt diesel?

The tappet clearance (also called valve clearance or lash) on a Ford Transit 2.5L diesel engine varies slightly depending on the specific year and exact engine code. You cannot rely on a single number.

To find the correct specification, you must consult your vehicle's owner's manual or a reputable workshop manual specific to your Transit's year and engine code. The information will be in the engine specifications section, often within a scheduled maintenance or engine repair chapter.

Looking up the engine code (usually found on a plate on the engine itself) will give you the most precise information. Attempting to use the wrong clearance can cause serious engine damage.
