Ford Tappet Holder T96P-6500-AH & Compressor T89P-6500-A Placement Diagram

This document is a single illustration from a service procedure showing the placement of special valvetrain service tools on an overhead-cam cylinder head. Two Ford special service tools are identified by callouts: the Tappet Holder, tool number T96P-6500-AH, and the Tappet Compressor, tool number T89P-6500-A. A third callout, labeled 'CORRECT CAM LOBE POSITION,' points to the camshaft lobe, indicating that the cam lobe must be oriented as shown (base circle facing the tappet/follower) before the tools are installed. The drawing shows the tappet compressor lever bearing on the tappet while the holder is inserted to retain the tappet in the depressed position, as would be needed for valve lash adjustment shim removal or replacement without removing the camshaft. The figure reference number A25151-A appears in the lower right corner. The image is part of an album that also includes pages for valve clearance checking, shim removal with compressed air, and tappet compressor placement, suggesting it belongs to a valve clearance (lash) adjustment procedure. No year, model, engine, torque values, or specifications are stated on this page itself; only the two special tool part numbers and the cam lobe positioning note are provided.
