7mm valve stem seals ( exhaust)

Does anyone know of a proper 7mm valve stem seal? Mercedes cant seem to find one. 6mm on the intake side, 7mm on the ex side. Must be an anomoly of the 95 606.910.

I ordered these locally at the request of the machine shop so we could return them, well, 12 work, 12 are too small.

A three week compression test, and now two weeks FOR VALVE SEALS.

Sometimes, its ridiculous working on these things man.

How small is too small?? Maybe they're intended to be tight and machine shop oughta toss em in boiling water to soften em up for installation.

1mm out of 6 is pretty big %. Stretch the Viton/rubber and it will dry and harden quick.

No sweat, I told the shop to try and find a good 7mm seal, and they think they did. We'll see tomorrow am.
