VALVES
/
VALVE
SPRINGS

The valves are arranged in-line and inclined 18°.
The rocker pivot support and the valve guides are cast integral with the heads. This procedure requires the removal of the cylinder
head.

REMOVAL
(1) Remove the cylinder head.
(2) Compress valve springs using Valve Spring
Compressor Tool MD-998772A.
(3) Remove valve retaining locks, valve spring re­
tainers, valve stem seals and valve springs.
(4) Before removing valves, remove any burrs from
valve stem lock grooves to prevent damage to the
valve guides. Identify valves to ensure installation in
original location.

VALVE
CLEANING
Clean valves thoroughly. Discard burned, warped
and cracked valves.
Remove carbon and varnish deposits from inside of
valve guides with a reliable guide cleaner.
VALVE
INSPECTION
Measure valve stems for wear. If wear exceeds
0.051 mm (0.002 inch), replace the valve. Measure valve stem guide clearance as follows:
(a) Install Valve Guide Sleeve Tool C-3973 over
valve stem and install valve (Fig. 10). The special sleeve places the valve at the correct height for
checking with a dial indicator.

Fig.
10 Positioning Valve with Tool C-3973
(b) Attach dial indicator Tool C-3339 to cylinder
head and set it at right angle of valve stem being
measured (Fig. 11).
(c) Move valve to and from the indicator. The to­
tal dial indicator reading should not exceed 0.432
mm (0.017 inch). Ream the guides for valves with
oversize stems if dial indicator reading is excessive
or if the stems are scuffed or scored.
Service valves with oversize stems are available
(Fig. 12).
Slowly turn reamer by hand and clean guide thor­
oughly before installing new valve. Ream the valve
guides from standard to 0.381 mm (0,015 inch).

VALVE
SPRING
INSPECTION
Whenever valves have been removed
for
inspection,
reconditioning
or
replacement, valve springs should
be tested.
As an
example
the
compression length
of

the spring
to be
tested
is 1-5/16
inch. Turn table
of

Valve Spring Tester Tool
C-647
until surface
is in
line with
the 1-5/16
inch mark
on the
threaded stud.
Be sure
the
zero mark
is to the
front (Fig.
16).
Place spring over stud
on the
table
and
lift compressing
le­

ver
to set
tone device. Pull
on
torque wrench until
ping
is
heard. Take reading
on
torque wrench
at
this instant. Multiply this reading
by 2.
This will give
the spring load
at
test length. Fractional measure­ ments
are
indicated
on the
table
for
finer adjust­ments. Refer
to
specifications
to
obtain specified
height
and
allowable tensions. Discard
the
springs
that
do not
meet specifications.

(3) Install new seals on all valve guides. Install
valve springs and valve retainers.
(4) Compress valve springs with Valve Spring
Compressor Tool MD-998772A, install locks and re­
lease tool. If valves and/or seats are ground, measure
the installed height of springs. Make sure the mea­ surement is taken from bottom of spring seat in cyl­
inder head to the bottom surface of spring retainer. If
spacers are installed, measure from the top of spacer.
If height is greater than 42.86 mm (1-11/16 inches), install a 1.587 mm (1/16 inch) spacer in head coun-
terbore. This should bring spring height back to nor­
mal 41.27 to 42.86 mm (1-5/8 to
1-11/16
inch).

/
SPRING REPLACEMENT
This procedure is done with the cylinder head in­
stalled. (1) Set engine basic timing to TDC and remove air
cleaner. (2) Remove cylinder head covers and spark plugs.
(3) Remove coil wire from distributor and secure to
good ground to prevent engine from starting. (4) Using suitable socket and flex handle at crank­
shaft retaining bolt, turn engine so the No.l piston is
at Top Dead Center on the compression stroke. (5) Remove rocker arms.
(6) With air hose attached to an adapter installed
in No.l spark plug hole, apply 620-689 kPa (90-100
psi) air pressure. (7) Using Valve Spring Compressor Tool
MD-998772A, compress valve spring and remove re­
tainer valve locks and valve spring. (8) Install seals on the exhaust valve stem and po­
sition down against valve guides. (9) The intake valve stem seals should be pushed
firmly and squarely over the valve guide using the valve stem as a guide. DO NOT force seal against
top of guide. When installing the valve retainer
locks,
compress the spring only enough to install the
locks.
(10) Follow the same procedure on the remaining 5
cylinders using the firing sequence
1-6-5-4-3-2.
Make sure piston in cylinder is at TDC on the valve spring
that is being removed. (11) Remove adapter from the No.l spark plug

hole.
(12) Install rocker arms.
(13) Install covers and coil wire to distributor.
(14) Install air cleaner.
(15) Road test vehicle.

HYDRAULIC
TAPPETS
Before disassembling any part of the engine to cor­
rect tappet noise, check the oil pressure. If vehicle
has no oil pressure gauge, install a reliable gauge at the pressure sending unit. The pressure should be be­
tween 207-552 kPa (30-80 psi) at 3,000 RPM.
Check the oil level after the engine reaches normal
operating temperature. Allow 5 minutes to stabilize
oil level, check dipstick.
The oil level in the pan should never be above the
FULL mark or below the ADD OIL mark on dipstick.
Either of these 2 conditions could be responsible for
noisy tappets.

OIL
LEWEL

HIGH
If oil level is above the FULL mark, it is possible
for the connecting rods to dip into the oil. With the engine running, this condition could create foam in
the oil pan. Foam in oil pan would be fed to the hy­ draulic tappets by the oil pump causing them to lose
length and allow valves to seat noisily.

LOW
Low oil level may allow oil pump to take in air.
When air is fed to the tappets, they lose length
which allows valves to seat noisily. Any leaks on in­
take side of oil pump through which air can be drawn will create the same tappet action. Check the
lubrication system from the intake strainer to the
pump cover, including the relief valve retainer cap.
When tappet noise is due to aeration, it may be in­
termittent or constant, and usually more than 1 tap­
pet will be noisy. When oil level and leaks have been corrected, operate the engine at fast idle. Run engine
for a sufficient time to allow all of the air inside the
tappets to be bled out.

TAPPET
NOISE DIAGNOSIS
(1) To determine source of tappet noise, operate en­
gine at idle with cylinder head covers removed. (2) Feel each valve spring or rocker arm to detect
noisy tappet. The noisy tappet will cause the affected
spring and/or rocker arm to vibrate or feel rough in
operation.
Worn valve guides or cocked springs are some­
times mistaken for noisy tappets. If such is the
case, noise may be dampened by applying side
thrust on the valve spring. If noise is not appre­ ciably reduced, it can be assumed the noise is in
the tappet. Inspect the rocker arm push rod sockets and push rod ends for wear.
(3) Valve tappet noise ranges from light noise to a
heavy click. A light noise is usually caused by exces­ sive leak down around the unit plunger or by the
plunger partially sticking in the tappet body cylin­ der. The tappet should be replaced. A heavy click is
caused by a tappet check valve not seating or by for­
eign particles becoming wedged between the plunger
and the tappet body. This will cause the plunger to
stick in the down position. This heavy click will be

The grinding depth is the difference between the
measurement before grinding and the measurement after grinding. The grinding depth maximum limit (integral seats only) is 0.254 mm (0.010 inch). Ser­
vice valve seats are available for over limit integral
valve seats.
Identify ground valve seats by stamping the cylin­
der head.
Install the valves in their designated locations and
measure the depth of each. The valve depth limit (In­
tegral and Inserted Seats) is 0.99 mm to 1.52 mm (0.039 inch to 0.060 inch). Replace the valve if the
depth is over this limit.
Apply a light coat of valve lapping compound to
each valve and lap each valve to its mating seat.
Remove the valves and clean lapping compound
from the valves and seats.
Measure the valve seat width indicated by the lap­
ping surface. The valve seat width limit is
1.50-2.00

mm (0.060-0.080 inch).
If required, grind the areas with a 60° stone and a
15° stone to center the seat on the valve face. Main­
tain the valve seat width limits (Fig. 11).

Inspect the valve guide bores as described in the
valve guide section of this manual. If it is necessary
to install valve guides, install the guides before in­ stalling the service seats.

Replacement valve seat inserts must be installed if
the valve seats have been ground previously. The il­ lustrated marks indicate valve seats have been
ground previously.
Machine the cylinder head to install the service
valve seats (Figs. 12 and 13).
