HELP..Blacktop Zetec value stem seal?
AndyW - 14/4/11 at 03:29 PM

Being a daft sod that I can sometimes be, I stripped the cylinder head, every bolt, nut, washer, valve, lifter, camshaft all labelled and noted what goes where. I didnt notice that the value stem seals are different colours?

I have just rooted through the bin and found that the old ones are indeed the same as the new ones.

8 Green seals and 8 Orangey seals.

Now here is the big question, which are inlet and which are exhaust? I have tried to measure the new ones but my micrometer has decided to pack in.

Want to build the head up tonight so answers below please

Thanks

Andy

Previous threads seem to agree on red (orange) are the Hot ones - exhaust

and the green ones cold - inlet.
