Ajusa Vtec Oil Control Spool Valve Filter Gasket

The Ajusa VTEC oil control spool valve filter gasket (also sold as a VTEC spool filter gasket or variable valve timing spool valve gasket) is an OE-quality replacement seal for Honda and Acura VTEC engines. VTEC uses oil pressure to adjust valve timing and lift. The spool valve filter gasket seals the oil passage and holds a fine screen that keeps debris out of the system.

Key Features:

• Combines a sealing gasket with an integrated perforated metal filter element
• Uses durable ACM elastomer seal material, which resists heat and engine oil
• Made to OE form, fit and function for easy installation and a reliable seal
• Helps restore proper oil flow to the VTEC mechanism when the original screen is clogged or the gasket is leaking
• Costs far less than replacing the complete variable valve timing solenoid assembly

A clogged screen or a hardened, leaking gasket can disrupt VTEC operation and cause oil seepage. This is most common when oil changes have been neglected. Replacing the filter gasket is a straightforward, preventative repair. Ajusa makes OE-quality gaskets and sealing parts for European and Asian vehicles, and this product line is part of that range.
