What this part is
The Elring 197378 valve stem seal is a small valve train seal that fits over the valve guide and wipes oil off the stem. It is made of ACM (polyacrylic rubber), 10 mm high, with an inner diameter of 8 mm, outer diameters of 10.8 and 14 mm, and a weight of about 4 g. When replacing it, it is identified by its fit on the guide and by oil traces on the valve stem.
The part is used on FIAT 124 Spider and 127, SEAT 131 and Ibiza, LANCIA Delta, ZASTAVA 101/Yugo engines, as well as on classic LADA 1200–1600 and Kalinka models. It is also found on Morgan Four Four and Plus Four. When selecting, cross-check part number 197.378 and the dimensions against the parameters of the valve guide and valve stem for your model.
