Fel-Pro Chevrolet Equinox SS 71198 Engine Valve Stem Oil Seal Set

Fel-Pro is known for making parts that work well in the actual repair shop, especially when dealing with less-than-perfect surfaces. This valve stem oil seal set, part number SS71198, is designed to address those common issues and provide a reliable seal for your engine. These seals are crucial for preventing oil from leaking down the valve guides into the combustion chamber, which can cause blue smoke on startup and increased oil consumption.

What makes these seals a solid option is that Fel-Pro engineers them specifically for the repair situation. They use the right type of seal for the job, whether it's an umbrella-style deflector seal or a positive seal, and they select materials based on the specific application. This attention to detail means you're getting a part that's built to last in your vehicle. Plus, they even include a special installation tool to help protect the seal's inner lip during installation, making the job a bit smoother.

This set fits a wide range of vehicles, including popular models like the Chevrolet Equinox, GMC Terrain, and Buick Regal. If you're rebuilding your top end or just replacing worn-out seals, this Fel-Pro set is a well-built choice for getting your engine running right.
