(d) Check the valve overall length.
Standard overall length:Intake 94.95 mm (3.7382 in.)
Exhaust 96.90 mm (3.8150 in.)
Minimum overall length: Intake 94.45 mm (3.7185 in.)
Exhaust 96.40 mm (3.7953 in.)
If the overall length is less than minimum, replace the valve.
(e) Check the surface of the valve stem tip for wear.
If the valve stem tip is worn, resurface the tip with a grinder
or replace the valve.
NOTICE: Do not grind off more than the minimum overall
length.
8. INSPECT AND CLEAN VALVE SEATS (a) Using a 455 carbide cutter, resurface the valve seats.
Remove only enough metal to clean the seats.
(b) Check the valve seating position.
Apply a thin coat of prussian blue (or white lead) to the valve
face. Lightly press the valve against the seat. Do not rotate
the valve.
(c) Check the valve face and seat for the following:w If blue appears 3605 around the face, the valve is
concentric. If not, replace the valve.
w If blue appears 3605 around the valve seat, the
guide and face are concentric. If not, resurface the
seat.
w Check that the seat contact is on the middle of the
valve face with the following width:
1.0±1.4 mm (0.039±0.055 in.)
If not, correct the valve seats as follows:
(1) If the seating is too high on the valve face, use 30 5
and 45 5 cutters to correct the seat.
