It is manufactured to the original Volvo Penta dimensions and interface requirements so the adjusted valve clearance can be set to the measured workshop specification. Precision adjustment shim, 2.60 mm thickness; commonly supplied within shim assortment 85111158. In service, it sets the exhaust-valve clearance by providing the selected calibrated thickness between the valve-train components. Fitment is controlled by the exact engine or product configuration and serialised parts list; confirm OEM number 1547979 against the installed assembly before ordering.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🚤 Compatibility\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Typically suits:\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta TAD1353GE\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta TAD1350GE\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta TAD1351GE\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta TAD1352GE\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta TAD1354GE\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta TAD1355GE\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta TAD1170-72VE\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta TAD1140-42VE\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Engine Family:\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  TAD\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n ⚙️ Key Features\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  OEM Volvo Penta part number 1547979\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Thickness: 2.60 mm - the dimension that identifies this shim among its siblings\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  System group: Engine\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Net weight approximately 0.025 kg\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Fits TAD1140-42VE, TAD1170-72VE and TAD1350GE-TAD1355GE diesel engines\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Supplied as an individual shim, selected by thickness to achieve the specified clearance\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  TH=2.60mm (Volvo assembly listing)\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  6 used per assembly\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔌 Function\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The shim acts as a precision spacer, taking up or setting a measured clearance between two components so assembled tolerances fall within specification.
