Which valve stem seals?
Posted: Sat Jan 30, 16 10:42 am
My gasket set has come with 8 small and 16 large valve stem seals but nothing to say which to use. Does anyone know which ones I should use and where?
The set is for 318, 340 and 360 motors, mine is a 340
They all seem to fit and my guess would be that the retained type might go on the inlet valves because the old larger ones are grooved and grip the stem guide in the block. The old smaller ones do not and they were on the exhaust valves.
Cheers, James
