Will this O-ring fit my 1978 VW Type II Bus push rod tube?

Yes, this O-ring is specifically designed to fit the push rod tube at the cylinder head for 1972-79 VW Type II Buses. If your bus is from 1978, this part will be compatible.

How many of these O-rings do I need to replace the push rod tubes on my van?

Each engine requires 8 O-rings—one for each push rod tube at the cylinder head end—so make sure to purchase enough to replace all if needed.

Can I install this O-ring myself, or should I take it to a shop?

If you’re comfortable working on your engine and have basic tools, you can install the O-ring yourself by removing the push rod tube and replacing the old O-ring with the new one. Otherwise, it’s best to get help from a qualified mechanic to ensure proper fit and prevent leaks.

Is this O-ring an original VW part or an aftermarket replacement?

This is a quality aftermarket O-ring designed to meet or exceed original specifications, making it a reliable and cost-effective replacement for your VW Bus or Vanagon push rod tube sealing needs.

How do I know if my push rod tube O-rings are worn and need replacing?

Common signs include oil leaks around the cylinder head, visible cracks or brittleness in the O-ring, or engine oil pressure issues. If you notice these symptoms, it’s a good idea to inspect and replace the O-rings to maintain engine health.
