Condor Valve Seals
Posted: Fri Jan 22, 2016 1:13 pm
Hi,
I am doing some work on my Condor engine and needed some new valve seals. These are different fom the seals used in the regular Ducati singles (as are the valve guides) but some research in the UK revealed that modern seals fitted to Audi, BMW, etc. automobile engines are the same type as needed for the Condor. I am using Elring seals, their part number being 553.190 and I believe these use a Viton-type flouroelastomer rubber. I have not run the engine yet, but happy to let others know how these seals perform in the future.
