1556064 Valve Seal | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

This genuine Volvo Penta valve seal is a valve-stem oil-control sealing component used in the cylinder-head valve-stem sealing. It is manufactured to the original Volvo Penta dimensions and interface requirements so oil control at the valve stem and guide remains within specification. FPM valve-stem seal; approximately 9.5 mm stem, 15.5 mm ID, 19.5 mm OD and 12.4 mm high. In service, it meters lubricating oil at the valve stem while preventing excessive oil from entering the inlet or exhaust port. Fitment is controlled by the exact engine or product configuration and serialised parts list; confirm OEM number 1556064 against the installed assembly before ordering.

🔌 Function

Meters lubricating oil at the valve stem while preventing excessive oil from entering the inlet or exhaust port. Inspect valve-stem and guide clearance before fitting a new seal; a new seal will not correct an excessively worn valve guide or damaged stem.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Blue exhaust smoke on start-up or during deceleration
• Rising engine oil consumption with no external leaks
• Oil fouling or carbon build-up on valve stems, guides and spark or injector components
• Hardened, cracked or perished seal lips found during head inspection
• Ticking or tapping from the valve train with signs of oil in the intake or exhaust tract

🛠️ Service Notes

• FPM stem seal for a 9.5 mm valve stem (approx. 15.5 mm ID, 19.5 mm OD, 12.4 mm high) — confirm these dimensions against the guide and valve before fitting
• 24 are used per cylinder head on the TD164KAE — renew the full set together rather than one at a time
• Check valve-stem-to-guide clearance first; a new seal will not cure oil consumption from a worn guide or damaged stem
