Description

Inlet Valve for the TD5 2.5L 5-Cylinder Turbo Diesel engine, as fitted to the Defender and Discovery 2.

The inlet valve controls the intake charge entering each combustion chamber in the cylinder head. The TD5 operates five inlet valves – one per cylinder – working in direct contact with the camshaft follower. A worn or damaged inlet valve reduces compression and combustion efficiency, causing rough running and power loss.
