The Cummins part number 3942565 is a valve tappet used in heavy-duty truck engines, primarily Tier 3 5.9 liter B engines. It's a vital component of the valvetrain, facilitating the opening and closing of valves for intake and exhaust processes. 
 
Here's a more detailed explanation:
  • Function:
    The valve tappet acts as a connecting piece between the camshaft and the valve. When the camshaft rotates, it pushes the tappet, which in turn pushes the valve stem open, allowing the intake or exhaust gases to flow through. 
     
  • Application:
    This particular part is specifically designed for use in heavy-duty truck engines, and is a common component in the Tier 3 5.9 liter B engine series. 
     
  • Significance:
    Properly functioning valve tappets are essential for the engine's overall performance, fuel economy, and emissions control. A worn or damaged tappet can lead to valve train noise, poor engine performance, and potentially even engine damage.
