specified  limit,  replace  the  valve  seat.
VALVE  SEAT  RECONDITIONING  PROCEDURE
(1)  Before  correcting  the  valve  seat,  check  for  cle arance
between  the  valve  guide  and  valve  and,  if  necessary ,
replace  the  valve  guide.
(2)  Using  the  seat  grinder,  correct  to  obtain  the  s pecified
seat  width  and  angle.
(3)  After  correcting  the  valve  seat,  lap  the  valve  and  valve
seat  using  lapping  compound.  Then,  check  the  valve
stem  projection  (refer  to  VALVE  SEAT  in  INSPECTION) .
VALVE  SEAT  REPLACEMENT 
(1) Cut the valve seat to be replaced  inside to thin

(3)  Before  fitting  the  valve  seat,  either  heat  the  cylinder  head
up  to  approximately

in  liquid  nitrogen,  to  prevent  the  cylinder  head  bo re  from
galling.
(4)  Using  a  valve  seat  cutter,  correct  the  valve  seat  to  the
specified width and angle.
See  “VALVE  SEAT  RECONDITIONING  PROCEDURE”.
VALVE  GUIDE  REPLACEMENT  PROCEDURE
(1)  Using  the  push  rod  and  a  press,  remove  the  valv e  guide
toward  cylinder  head  gasket  surface.

(3) Using the special tool, press-fit the valve gui de, working
from  the  cylinder  head  top  surface.
(4)  After  installing  valve  guides,  insert  new  valve s  in  them
to  check  for  sliding  condition.
(5) When valve guides have been replaced, check for  valve
contact and correct valve seats as necessary.
