⚙️ Key Features

• 0.070 kg
• From the Engine group
• Listed for 22 applications
• Matches valve 3857879 and push rod 3857899
• 8 used per assembly

🔌 Function

Closes the valve and holds it hard against its seat, keeping the valve gear in contact with the cam so the valve follows the cam profile instead of bouncing.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Valve gear noisy or clattering at higher revs
• Power falling away at the top end as valves float
• Spring broken, usually near one end
• Coils rusted, pitted or rubbing bright against each other
• Spring visibly shorter than its neighbours when laid side by side

🛠️ Service Notes

• Renew springs as a set rather than singly, so all the valves close with the same load
• Compare free lengths across the head before deciding one spring has settled

📦 Condition

• Genuine Volvo Penta part
• Brand new
• Supplied in original or equivalent packaging
