Detailed Product Description

The Hotbray C30431 camshaft plug is engineered to fit precisely in the camshaft housing of Jaguar XJ series vehicles, including the XJ6, XJ12, and XJS.

  • Helps avoid engine performance issues related to oil loss

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the camshaft housing is clean and free of debris before installing the Hotbray C30431 plug. The plug should be pressed evenly into place without twisting to avoid damage to the NBR material. Since dust seals are not included, inspect the surrounding area for any additional sealing requirements. Proper installation will help maintain engine integrity and prevent leaks.
