Key Features
- Genuine OEM Sealing Material — Manufactured to the original elastomer and dimensional specification for the GX160 engine, ensuring correct compression and oil retention at the valve stem.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Seats into the valve guide the same way as the factory-installed seal, requiring no modification to the cylinder head or valve train during installation.
- GX160 Engine Fitment — Engineered specifically for GX160 engine configurations used across a range of Multiquip-powered equipment.
- Prevents Oil Consumption and Smoking — A correctly functioning valve stem seal keeps engine oil out of the combustion chamber, preventing blue exhaust smoke and protecting engine performance over time.
- Supports Proper Engine Compression — Maintains the integrity of the valve train sealing environment, helping the engine sustain consistent compression and combustion efficiency.
A valve stem seal wraps around the stem of each intake or exhaust valve where it passes through the cylinder head, acting as a barrier that prevents engine oil from being drawn into the combustion chamber during valve operation. When this seal wears out or hardens with age, oil migrates past the valve stem, burning inside the cylinder and producing the characteristic blue-gray smoke visible from the exhaust. Replacing a failed valve stem seal restores the oil boundary at the valve guide, protecting the engine from accelerated wear and keeping oil consumption in check during normal operation.
