Description
What does a valve adjusting shim do?
This valve adjusting shim is a precision-ground component designed to maintain exact valve clearance within the engine's valve train. By providing a specific thickness between the rocker arm and the valve, it ensures the valve seats fully during every combustion cycle, which is critical for maintaining engine compression and protecting the valve seating face.Engine compatibility and fitment
This specific part is compatible with Volvo FH16 trucks equipped with D16C engines. It serves as a high-strength solution for maintaining mechanical tolerances in heavy-duty diesel engines used in commercial transport.Installation and maintenance
When performing engine maintenance or top-end overhauls, technicians should verify the required thickness to prevent compression loss or excessive wear. Proper installation of this 3.85 mm shim helps prevent side loading on the valve stem and ensures long-term durability under continuous impact loading.Troubleshooting and selection
Consult your authorized distributor to ensure correct fitment for your specific engine serial number.OE cross-reference
1300 05 038 (Valve Adjusting Shim Engine Valve) is the equivalent of the Volvo OE number. This part directly replaces Volvo OE number 1677366.Other OEMs
