These little guys take the pulse, so to speak, from the camshaft and turn that into the up and down motion that actually opens and closes the valves in your engine. Each finger follower sits between the camshaft lobe and the valve stem. It's a pretty direct connection. The kit usually includes the followers themselves, plus the little pins and sometimes even the shims they need to operate smoothly. Basically, they're a key part of how your engine breathes. Everything from power output to fuel economy depends on those valves opening and closing at precisely the right time. The VTC part—Variable Timing Control—means this kit is used in engines that can adjust valve timing for better performance and efficiency. Modern engines almost always have VTC. Well, these followers take a beating. Constant movement, high temperatures, engine oil… it all adds up. Over time, they wear down, the surfaces get pitted, and they don't transfer that camshaft motion as cleanly. You’ll notice if one goes bad – usually a ticking sound, potentially some loss of power, or even a check engine light. If left alone, a failing follower can really damage the valve and even the camshaft itself, turning a relatively cheap fix into a major engine repair. They’re not something you want to put off. You can find kits like this at places like Fixparts Online, and it's often smart to replace the whole kit at once – if one’s worn, the others likely aren’t far behind. Replacing them as a set gives you peace of mind and avoids having to tear into the engine again soon. Choose INA: VTC Finger Follower Kit (MPN 423007910) comes with a 12-month warranty!
