Description

What does a valve adjusting shim do?

This valve adjusting shim is a precision-ground component designed to maintain specific valve clearances within the engine's valve train. By adding precise thickness between the cam follower and the valve, it ensures the valve seats fully during every cycle, which is critical for maintaining compression and engine timing in heavy commercial vehicle diesel engines.

Engine compatibility

This specific shim is compatible with Volvo FM10 engines featuring the D10A engine code. It serves as a high-strength component within the cylinder head assembly, helping to manage the mechanical tolerances required for heavy-duty operation.

Installation and maintenance

When performing 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, as each may require a different grade to meet the manufacturer's exact specifications. Always verify all clearances after installation before closing the engine cover.

Troubleshooting and selection

Proper selection of shims prevents premature wear on the cam profile and protects the valve seating face from damage caused by incorrect clearance.

OE cross-reference

1300 05 022 (Valve Adjusting Shim Engine Valve) is the equivalent of the Volvo OE number. This part directly replaces Volvo OE number 1677350.
