What is the main purpose of valve stem oil seals?

Valve stem oil seals prevent excess oil from entering the combustion chamber through the valve guides. When they wear out, oil can leak down the valve stem, leading to increased oil consumption and blue smoke from the exhaust.

Does this set include everything needed for installation?

This set includes the valve stem oil seals and a specific installation tool designed to protect the seal's inner lip during installation. You may need other standard mechanic's tools to access and replace the seals.

What types of valve stem seals does Fel-Pro use?

Fel-Pro designs these seals to be application-specific, using either deflector (umbrella) seals, O-ring style, or positive seals depending on what is best suited for your particular Volvo engine.

Product Details

Fel-Pro is known for making parts that work well in real-world repair situations, especially when sealing is tricky. This set of valve stem oil seals is designed specifically for your Volvo, helping to keep oil from getting into your combustion chambers. When these seals start to wear out, you might notice more smoke from your exhaust, especially after the engine has been idling, and your oil level can drop faster than it should.

These aren't just generic seals; Fel-Pro engineers them to be the right type for your specific Volvo engine, whether that's an umbrella style, O-ring, or positive seal. They use materials chosen for the particular demands of your vehicle. Plus, they include a special installation tool to help protect the delicate inner lip of the seal as you put it on, which is a smart touch that can prevent damage during the job.

This set covers a range of Volvo models, including the S80, S90, V90, and XC90, making it a solid option for many Volvo owners needing to address oil consumption issues related to worn valve stem seals.
