GTI6 Valve stem oil Seals - PUGNUT_XS - 16-09-2013 Hi All Stripping my 6 engine head down, has anybody changed valve stem oil seals? Look at my haynes manual, but this does not deal with the 6 engine, Tried to remove one with pliers, but it wont seem to budge, obviously dont want to go into animal mode and feck up the head. Cheers RE: GTI6 Valve stem oil Seals - Frosty - 16-09-2013 They will be on there pretty well. Just be brave RE: GTI6 Valve stem oil Seals - PUGNUT_XS - 16-09-2013 (16-09-2013, 12:12 PM)Frosty Wrote: They will be on there pretty well.

That's what I found was best to use RE: GTI6 Valve stem oil Seals - Grant - 16-09-2013 They're only pushed in. Should come out easy enough with pliers as said ![]() RE: GTI6 Valve stem oil Seals - bitwrx - 17-09-2013 Watch out, there are different sizes! The bit of paper from my head gasket set says there are three different options: 6x26.5x17 FAI part number: VSK860 6x29x17.5 FAI part number: VSK870 7x29x16 FAI part number: VSK870B Looks like you have to measure internal and external diameters, and presumably the length/height. All come in bags of 16 (I knew keeping every scrap of paper I had to do with the car would come in handy one day...) Let me know how you get on. Didn't have the energy to refurb my head by the time I got it off to do the HG, so have no experience of valve stem seals. RE: GTI6 Valve stem oil Seals - PUGNUT_XS - 18-09-2013 Managed to get them off, soaked the head over night in WD40 then went at them with pliers, mullerd them to feck but got them off. Not sure what size though ![]() Thanks for the heads up (No Pun Intended) |
