What causes an engine to burn oil and need new valve stem seals?

Engines typically burn oil when the valve stem seals wear out or become brittle. This allows oil to seep down the valve stems and into the combustion chamber, where it burns along with the fuel. You might notice blue smoke from the exhaust, especially on startup or deceleration.

Does this set come with everything needed for installation?

This set includes the valve stem seals themselves and a specialized installation tool designed to protect the seal during installation. You will need other standard mechanic's tools to access and replace the seals.

How do I know if my vehicle is covered by this seal set?

This set is compatible with a range of Hyundai, Kia, and Mazda models. Check the 'Structured Vehicle Fitment' section on the product page to confirm if your specific year, make, and model are listed.

Product Details

If you're noticing blue smoke from your exhaust, especially when the engine is first started, or if your engine is burning more oil than it should, it's likely time to replace the valve stem seals. This set from Fel-Pro is designed to address those issues, helping to keep oil from leaking past the valve guides and into the combustion chamber. It's a common repair that makes a noticeable difference in how your engine runs and breathes.

Fel-Pro puts a lot of thought into making their seals work well in the real world of repairs. They use application-specific designs, meaning they choose the right type of seal—whether it's a deflector, O-ring, or positive seal—based on what works best for your specific engine. They also select materials carefully for each application to ensure a reliable seal. Plus, they include a helpful installation tool to protect the seal's inner lip during installation, which is a common point of damage if you're not careful.

This set fits a wide range of vehicles, including popular models like the Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Optima, and Mazda 929, among others. Having fresh valve stem seals can help restore proper engine performance and reduce oil consumption.
