6. CLEAN COMBUSTION CHAMBER
Using a wire.-brush, remove all the carbon from the com-
bustion chambers.
CAUTION: Be dareful not to scratch the head gasket
contact surface.
CLEAN VALVE GUIDE BUSHINGS
Using a valve guide brush and solvent, clean all the valve
guide bushings.
CLEAN CYLINDER HEAD
Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the head.
INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD FOR FLATINESS
Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure
the surface contacting the cylinder block and manifold for
warpage.
Maximum warpage: 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.1
If warpage is greater than maximum, replace the cylinder
head.
