🔌 Function

The sleeve maintains the specified spacing and alignment of the rocker-arm and valve-actuation components.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • Excessive rocker-arm axial movement
  • Uneven wear on the sleeve or guide
  • Rocker misalignment
  • Incorrect valve or injector adjustment

🛠️ Service Notes

  • A spacer sleeve sets a fixed length in the joint — never leave one out, shorten one, or substitute a stack of washers, or the clamping load and alignment will both be wrong
  • Check that the sleeve is square and fully seated in its counterbore or recess before any fastener is tightened
  • Discard a sleeve that is crushed, bell-mouthed, scored or corroded; a shortened sleeve lets the joint be over-clamped and the component distorted
  • On sleeves in an oil circuit, make sure the bore is clear and that any seal running on the sleeve has a clean, unscored surface to work against
  • Tighten the joint to the figure in the workshop manual for your engine, with the sleeve taking the clamping load rather than the component it protects
