Description
Overview:
The Valve Guide for Thor 16D Digger is a non-genuine, high-quality replacement component for the cylinder head of Thor compact excavators. Precision-machined from durable metal to resist heat, wear, and oil contamination, it supports and aligns the engine's valve stem so the valve seats correctly, helping to reduce blow-by and oil consumption. Designed to replace Thor OEM part 43767, it fits the Thor 16D and THOR16D engines with the correct press/interference fit when installed to specification. A sound guide helps maintain valve timing accuracy and compression, protecting the engine and keeping output stable. This part is suitable for routine overhauls or repairs where the original guide is worn, oval, or loose, restoring reliable day-to-day operation.
Key Features:
- Non-genuine replacement matching the fit and function of Thor OEM 43767
- Precision-machined bore for accurate valve stem alignment and smooth operation
- Hard-wearing metal construction for long service in high-heat, high-load conditions
- Helps restore compression, reduce oil consumption, and improve starting consistency
- Stable interference fit in the cylinder head; compatible with standard workshop tools and methods
- Consistent dimensions for reliable valve seating and sealing performance
- Suitable for inlet or exhaust positions where specified by the engine manual
- Cost-effective alternative to the original part without compromising core function
Typical Applications:
Used during top-end rebuilds, head reconditioning, and valve servicing on Thor 16D diggers. Common when diagnosing smoke, tapping noises, or excessive stem-to-guide play. Fitted alongside new valves and stem seals as required to maintain compression, reduce oil consumption, and keep plant in reliable working order on site or in the workshop.
