What It Helps Address

• Oil seepage past the valve stem area
• Excessive oil consumption caused by worn stem seals
• Blue exhaust smoke during startup or deceleration
• Valve guide area contamination from degraded sealing
• Loss of consistent top-end engine sealing

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the inside diameter, outside diameter, thickness, and valve stem diameter before installation. Clean the valve guide and surrounding cylinder head surfaces thoroughly, and inspect the valve stem and guide for wear or scoring that could affect seal performance. Because this is an engine sealing component, careful handling during assembly helps prevent damage to the sealing lip.
