## ⚙️ Key Features

-   0.0045 kg
-   Engine group
-   Listed for 96 applications in the DPX family
-   16 used per assembly

## 🔌 Function

Meters the oil down the valve stem, keeping the guide lubricated without letting oil into the port.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Puff of blue smoke on start-up or after idling at a mooring
-   Oil consumption rising with no external leak
-   Plugs oiled up on the affected cylinders
-   Seals found hardened, split or missing their spring
-   Deposits built up on the valve stem and back of the head

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Renew all of the seals as a set — the rest will be the same age as the one that failed
-   Check the guide clearance at the same time; a worn guide will destroy new seals — guide 3861294 covers the same engines

## 📦 Condition
