Product Description
The Genuine Kawasaki 12005-0793 exhaust valve is a precision-engineered OEM component designed to control the flow of exhaust gases out of the combustion chamber on FR, FS, and FX series V-twin engines. Its primary function is to open at the correct time to allow spent combustion gases to exit the cylinder, then seal tightly during the intake, compression, and power strokes. Exhaust valves operate under extremely high temperatures and are subjected to more stress than intake valves, making them more prone to burning, warping, or wear over time. Common symptoms of a failing exhaust valve include loss of compression, hard starting, rough idle, popping or backfiring through the exhaust, reduced engine power, or a misfire. Replacing a damaged exhaust valve with this genuine OEM unit restores proper engine breathing, compression, and reliable performance for your mower or turf equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between an intake valve and an exhaust valve?
A: Intake valves allow the air/fuel mixture into the cylinder. Exhaust valves allow spent combustion gases to exit. Exhaust valves operate under much higher temperatures and are made from more heat-resistant materials.
Q: What are common signs of a bad exhaust valve?
A: Common symptoms include loss of compression, hard starting, rough idle, popping or backfiring through the exhaust, reduced engine power, or a misfire.
Q: Why are exhaust valves more expensive than intake valves?
A: Exhaust valves are subjected to extreme heat (up to 1600°F) and are typically made from more expensive heat-resistant alloys, such as sodium-filled stems or stainless steel.
Q: Should I replace both exhaust valves on a V-twin engine?
A: Yes, it is recommended to replace valves in pairs (both cylinders) to ensure balanced performance and compression. You would need two of these valves.
Q: Should I replace the valve spring at the same time?
A: While not always required, it is good practice to replace valve springs when doing valve work, as springs lose tension over time. We offer a bundle with the 49078-7002 valve spring.
Q: What valve clearance should I set after installation?
A: Typical exhaust valve clearance for these engines is 0.008″ (0.20mm) when cold. Always verify with your engine’s service manual.
