Valve springs are a delicate and important component of the valve system inside a car engine. Their primary function is to adjust the distance (clearance) between the rocker arm and the valve tip, ensuring smooth and precise valve operation without excessive noise or loss of performance.
Specifications of Pajero engine valve stems:
- Country of Origin: Japan
- Car brand: Mitsubishi
- Product Number: MD377560
- Compatible models: Mitsubishi Pajero 3500 engine
- Mitsubishi L200 Pickup 3500cc
Main function:
- Camshaft transmission:
- It works by transferring the rotary motion of the cams into a linear motion to open and close the valves.
- Automatic distance compensation:
- Thanks to their hydraulic design, the supports maintain the proper distance between the valve parts to reduce noise and prevent wear.
- Reduce noise and vibration:
- Significantly reduces the "clicking" noise caused by excess clearance between valve components.
Mechanism of action:
- The valves rely on engine oil pressure to fill a small chamber inside them.
- When the cam rotates and presses the lever, pressure is transferred to the valve, which opens or closes depending on the engine's rotation.
- The oil inside the lever allows it to automatically adjust the distance as needed.
Technical Specifications: Material:
- Heavy-duty steel, resistant to friction and heat.
- Accuracy:
- Precision engineered to ensure fast response and silent operation.
Symptoms of damaged valve stems:
- A distinct clicking or rattling noise from the engine head, especially on cold start.
- Abnormal engine vibrations.
- Poor engine performance or partial loss of power.
- More oil consumption than normal.
Benefits when replacing it:
- Improve valve operation efficiency.
- Reduce engine noise and improve driving comfort.
- Increase engine life and maintain its internal components.
- Better performance and more efficient fuel consumption.
