Description
Overview:
The Valve Rocker Adjusting Screw Nut is a small but critical fastener for securing the valve clearance setting on Villiers industrial engines. Made from durable steel with a hex profile for standard spanners, it locks the rocker adjusting screw so your set clearance stays stable under vibration and load. This Genuine Villiers part (OEM EM1197) is intended for use on Mk15 and MK15/2 C15 engines and is a direct-fit replacement for worn or missing hardware in the rocker gear assembly. As unused old stock, it may show light tarnishing from storage, which does not affect function. Use it during valve setting, servicing, or rebuilds to keep the top end reliable and to support smooth, efficient running in demanding industrial use.
