Replacement FS-95V Valve for FS-series O.S. Engines

This FS-95V valve is supplied as O.S. Engine part OS40960100 and is intended for FS-series glow engines used in model aircraft and similar RC applications. It is described as a valve assembly with a precision ground steel stem designed to match the original service specification for straightforward replacement.

Compatibility applies specifically to FS-series O.S. glow engines that accept the FS-95V valve type. Confirm the part number against your engine's service sheet before ordering, since this listing does not enumerate every individual model that may use the valve.

Installation summary: follow the engine maker's procedures to remove the head and valve train, install the replacement valve, check seating and stem clearance, then reassemble. Perform a careful bench run after installation to ensure correct sealing and idle behavior. Do not force the valve into place; correct contact and clearance are crucial.

Service notes: while the valve does not alter ignition advance or carburetion settings, maintaining a correctly seated valve is essential to preserve compression and provide a stable idle, which in turn supports repeatable tuning sessions. Inspect for stem wear and seating damage as part of regular maintenance.

After fitting, visually check that the valve face meets the seat evenly. Use a light lapping compound only if the service manual allows it, and remove any debris before final assembly.
Look for stem scoring, a chipped or pitted seating face, or loss of compression during a leak-down test. Any of these warrant replacement with OS40960100.
Reusing springs and retainers is common if they are undamaged, but inspect for fatigue or deformation; replace components that show wear to ensure reliable valve operation.
