Valve Stem Seal - Type 1 Engines

Keep your classic Volkswagen’s engine oil-tight and smoke-free with this replacement valve stem oil seal designed for all VW Type 1 air-cooled engines from 1960 to 1979.

These high-quality seals fit snugly around each valve stem, preventing engine oil from seeping down into the combustion chamber during operation. This helps reduce oil consumption, prevent blue exhaust smoke, and maintain efficient compression and cleaner running.

Manufactured from durable, heat-resistant rubber, these seals are built to handle the high temperatures and oil exposure typical of air-cooled engines. They’re suitable for both standard and rebuilt cylinder heads.

Sold individually – 8 required per engine (2 per cylinder).
