Overview – Tappet Replacer 3822513EA
3822513EA is the service tool used to install and remove tappets on CUMMINS engines, providing the controlled action required to seat the tappet correctly in its bore. We can supply all the original and replacement part numbers listed below, in stock or available on order – welcome to enquire by part number.
Parts Characteristics
The replacer is machined to engage the tappet body and its bore, sized so the tappet is installed or extracted square without scoring the bore. The working faces are hardened for repeated service use, and the tool accepts the standard driver or puller arrangement. The engagement matches the tappet profile without damage, and the tool is finished to protect the surrounding valve train surfaces. As an OEM-spec tool, it follows the manufacturer’s service procedure for tappet replacement.
Applicable Models & Applications
This replacer is used on CUMMINS engine families where the specified tappet must be installed or removed, including overhaul and valve train service on the relevant engine builds. The family reference 3823591 covers the same service duty on adjacent builds. It is intended for workshop use by technicians servicing tappets and valve train components. Confirm the tappet size and bore match the tool before use.
Maintenance & Replacement
Keep the tool clean and lightly oiled, and inspect the working faces for wear before each use. When installing a tappet, lubricate the bore and tappet, align the tool squarely, and apply even pressure to avoid cocking. Remove the old tappet with the puller arrangement and inspect the bore for scoring before fitting the new one. Replace the tool if the working surfaces are damaged or the engagement is loose.
