Volvo Engine Exhaust Valve - TRW 31480436

Product Information

An engine exhaust valve is a component inside the cylinder head that controls the release of burned gases from the combustion chamber after the air-fuel mixture has been ignited. It works in tandem with the intake valve, which allows fresh air and fuel into the cylinder. Exhaust valves are typically made of heat-resistant steel to withstand high temperatures and pressure.

• Poor Engine Performance / Power Loss: Incomplete exhaust evacuation reduces cylinder efficiency.
• Engine Misfires: Burned, bent, or leaking valves can cause misfires or rough idle.
• Excessive Smoke from Exhaust: White, blue, or black smoke may result from oil burning or improper combustion.
