Description

What does a valve adjusting shim do?

This valve adjusting shim is a precision-ground component designed to maintain correct valve clearance within the engine's valve train. By providing a specific thickness, it ensures the valve seats fully on every cycle, which is critical for maintaining compression and preventing long-term damage to the valve seating face.

Compatibility with Volvo FH16 engines

This specific part is compatible with Volvo FH16 trucks equipped with D16C engines. It serves as a high-strength component within the cylinder head assembly, ensuring that the gap between the cam follower and the valve remains within the manufacturer's specified tolerance during continuous operation.

Installation and maintenance guidance

When performing engine maintenance, technicians should ensure the shim seat is clean and lightly lubricated before installation to prevent scoring. It is essential to measure each valve individually to ensure the exact 2.90 mm thickness is applied where required, as clearances must be precise to prevent compression loss or excessive noise.

Troubleshooting and selection

Regular inspection of valve clearances helps prevent premature wear of the rocker arm and cam components. For optimal performance, always verify all clearances after assembly and consider renewing the rocker cover gasket during the service interval.

OE cross-reference

1300 05 019 (Valve Adjusting Shim Engine Valve) is the equivalent of the Volvo OE number. This part directly replaces Volvo OE number 1677347.
