The Wacker Neuson Valve Tappet is a genuine OEM component designed for a range of Wacker Neuson vibratory plate compactors, centrifugal trash pumps, and the RS800V single drum vibratory roller. This is a direct OEM sourced part, manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring correct fit and function across compatible engine platforms. Confirmed fitment includes the WP1550VW, WP1550V, VPG165V, PT2V, PT3V, and RS800V — covering both compaction and pumping equipment in the Wacker Neuson lineup. When your engine's valvetrain needs attention, replacing worn tappets with the correct OEM part helps restore proper valve timing and engine performance.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Valvetrain Tolerancing — Manufactured to original equipment specification, ensuring correct contact geometry between the camshaft lobe and valve stem for accurate lift and timing.
- Drop-In Engine Replacement — Installs directly into the existing tappet bore with no machining or modification to the cylinder block required.
- Broad Fitment Across Equipment Families — Compatible with WP1550VW and WP1550V vibratory plate compactors, VPG165V vibratory plate, PT2V and PT3V centrifugal trash pumps, and the RS800V single drum vibratory roller.
- Restores Valve Timing Accuracy — A worn tappet causes inconsistent valve lift, leading to rough running, loss of compression, and increased engine wear; a fresh OEM tappet brings timing back into spec.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly through the Wacker Neuson parts network under part number 5000086852, so you can be confident you are fitting the right component for your machine.
A valve tappet — also called a cam follower or lifter — sits between the camshaft and the valve stem (or pushrod) inside a four-stroke engine. Its job is to transfer the rotating motion of the camshaft lobe into the linear motion that opens and closes the intake and exhaust valves at precisely the right moment in the combustion cycle. When a tappet wears down or develops excessive clearance, valve timing drifts out of specification, which can result in hard starting, loss of power, increased fuel consumption, and accelerated wear on surrounding valvetrain components. Replacing the tappet with a correctly sized OEM part restores the designed clearance and keeps the engine running cleanly through demanding compaction and pumping applications.
