GENERAL
The power seat can be adjusted in 6 different direc-
tions (Fig. 1). The control switch is on the lower out-
board side of the seat.
The front lever on the switch raises or lowers (tilts)
the front of the seat cushion. The center lever raises
or lowers the complete seat by moving the switch up
or down. The center lever also moves the seat for-
ward or rearward by moving the switch forward or
rearward. The rear lever raises or lowers (tilts) the
back of the seat cushion.
There are 3 reversible motors that operate the
power seat. The front and rear of the seat are oper-
ated by different motors. They can be raised or low-
ered independently of each other. Moving the center
position seat switch to either the UP or DOWN posi-
tion, runs both the front and rear motors at the same
time.
The forward-rearward motor is operated by the
center position seat switch. When the switch is held
in the FORWARD position, battery voltage is applied
through the switch contacts to pin S3 and the for-ward-rearward motor. The motor is grounded
through pin S4 and the contacts of the back switch to
pin 2 and to ground. The motor runs to drive the seat
forward until the switch is released.
With the switch in the REAR position, pin S4 re-
ceives battery voltage and pin S3 is grounded. This
reversed polarity causes the motor to run in the op-
posite direction and drive the seat backward.
The front motor works in a similar way when the
front height switch is operated.
To raise the entire seat, the center position seat
switch is held in the UP position. This applies bat-
tery voltage to both pins S1 and S5 and the front and
rear motors. Pins S2 and S6 are grounded through
the down switches and the lower switch. Both motors
run to drive the entire seat up. A similar action oc-
curs to move the entire seat down.
Each motor contains a self-resetting circuit breaker
to protect it from overload. Consecutive or frequent
resetting must not be allowed to continue. Make nec-
essary repairs.
DIAGNOSIS
Refer to Group 8W-Wiring Diagrams for a complete
circuit diagram.
Before any testing is attempted the battery should
be fully charged and all connections and pins cleaned
and tightened to insure proper continuity and
grounds.
With the dome light on, apply switch in direction
of the failure. If the dome light dims, the seat may
be jamming. Check for binding. If the dome light
does not dim, then proceed with the following electri-
cal tests.
SEAT MOTOR ASSEMBLY
²Position seat switch to move all 3 seat motors. The
seat should move in all directions. If not, go to No
Seat Motors Operate. If one or more motors operate,
refer to switch testing.
Test seat switch. If OK, replace defective motor.
NO SEAT MOTORS OPERATE
Circuit breaker installed.
²Probe 30 amp circuit breaker, cavity #16 on fuse
panel. If battery voltage is present, replace circuit
breaker.

REMOVAL
Each valve spring is held in place by a retainer
and a set of conical valve locks. The locks can be re-
moved only by compressing the valve spring.
(1) Remove the engine cylinder head cover.
(2) Remove capscrews, bridge and pivot assemblies
and rocker arms for access to each valve spring to be
removed.
(3) Remove push rods. Retain the push rods,
bridges, pivots and rocker arms in the same order
and position as removed.
(4) Inspect the springs and retainer for cracks and
possible signs of weakening.
(5) Remove the spark plug(s) adjacent to the cylin-
der(s) below the valve springs to be removed.
(6) Install a 14 mm (1/2 inch) (thread size) air hose
adaptor in the spark plug hole.
(7) Connect an air hose to the adapter and apply
air pressure slowly. Maintain at least 621 kPa (90
psi) of air pressure in the cylinder to hold the valves
against their seats. For vehicles equipped with an air
conditioner, use a flexible air adaptor when servicing
the No.1 cylinder.
(8) Tap the retainer or tip with a rawhide hammer
to loosen the lock from the retainer. Use Valve
Spring Compressor Tool MD-998772A to compress
the spring and remove the locks (Fig. 7).
(9) Remove valve spring and retainer (Fig. 7).
(10) Remove valve stem oil seals (Fig. 7). Note the
valve seals are different for intake and exhaust
valves. The top of each seal is marked either INT
(Intake) or EXH (Exhaust). DO NOT mix the seals.
INSPECTION
Inspect the valve stems, especially the grooves. An
Arkansas smooth stone should be used to remove
nicks and high spots.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Install oil seals carefully to prevent dam-
age from the sharp edges of the valve spring lock
grove.
(1) Lightly push the valve seal over the valve stem
and valve guide boss. Be sure the seal is completely
seated on the valve guide boss.
(2) Install valve spring and retainer.
(3) Compress the valve spring with Valve Spring
Compressor Tool MD-998772A and insert the valve
locks. Release the spring tension and remove the
tool. Tap the spring from side-to-side to ensure that
the spring is seated properly on the engine cylinder
head.
(4) Disconnect the air hose. Remove the adaptor
from the spark plug hole and install the spark plug.
(5) Repeat the procedures for each remaining valve
spring to be removed.
(6) Install the push rods. Ensure the bottom end of
each rod is centered in the plunger cap seat of the
hydraulic valve tappet.
(7) Install the rocker arms, pivots and bridge at
their original location.
(8) Tighten the bridge capscrews alternately, one
at a time, to avoid damaging the bridge. Tighten the
capscrews to 28 Nzm (21 ft. lbs.) torque.
(9) Install the engine cylinder head cover.
VALVES AND VALVE SPRINGS
This procedure is done with the engine cylinder
head removed from the block.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove the engine cylinder head from the cyl-
inder block.
(2) Use Valve Spring Compressor Tool
MD-998772A and compress each valve spring.
(3) Remove the valve locks, retainers, springs and
valve stem oil seals. Discard the oil seals.
(4) Use an Arkansas smooth stone or a jewelers
file to remove any burrs on the top of the valve stem,
especially around the groove for the locks.
(5) Remove the valves, and place them in a rack in
the same order as removed.
VALVE CLEANING
Clean all carbon deposits from the combustion
chambers, valve ports, valve stems, valve stem
guides and head.
Clean all grime and gasket material from the en-
gine cylinder head machined gasket surface.

INSPECTION
Inspect for cracks in the combustion chambers and
valve ports.
Inspect for cracks on the exhaust seat.
Inspect for cracks in the gasket surface at each
coolant passage.
Inspect valves for burned, cracked or warped heads.
Inspect for scuffed or bent valve stems.
Replace valves displaying any damage.
VALVE REFACING
(1) Use a valve refacing machine to reface the in-
take and exhaust valves to the specified angle.
(2) After refacing, a margin of at least 0.787 mm
(0.031 inch) must remain (Fig. 8). If the margin is
less than 0.787 mm (0.031 inch), the valve must be
replaced.
VALVE SEAT REFACING
(1) Install a pilot of the correct size in the valve
guide bore. Reface the valve seat to the specified an-
gle with a good dressing stone. Remove only enough
metal to provide a smooth finish.
(2) Use tapered stones to obtain the specified seat
width when required.
(3) Control valve seat runout to a maximum of
0.0635 mm (0.0025 in.)Ð(Fig. 9).
VALVE STEM OIL SEAL REPLACEMENT
Valve stem oil seals are installed on each valve
stem to prevent rocker arm lubricating oil from en-
tering the combustion chamber through the valve
guide bores. One seal is marked INT (intake valve)
and the other is marked EXH (exhaust valve).Replace the oil seals whenever valve service is per-
formed or if the seals have deteriorated.
VALVE GUIDES
The valve guides are an integral part of the engine
cylinder head and are not replaceable.
When the valve stem guide clearance is excessive,
the valve guide bores must be reamed oversize. Ser-
vice valves with oversize stems are available in 0.076
mm (0.003 inch) and 0.381 mm (0.015 inch) incre-
ments.
Corresponding oversize valve stem seals are also
available and must be used with valves having 0.381
mm (0.015 inch) oversize stems.
If the valve guides are reamed oversize, the
valve seats must be ground to ensure that the
valve seat is concentric to the valve guide.
VALVE STEM-TO-GUIDE CLEARANCE
MEASUREMENT
Valve stem-to-guide clearance may be measured by
either of the following two methods.
PREFERRED METHOD:
(1) Remove the valve from the head.
(2) Clean the valve stem guide bore with solvent
and a bristle brush.
(3) Insert a telescoping gauge into the valve stem
guide bore approximately 9.525 mm (.375 inch) from
the valve spring side of the head (Fig. 10).
(4) Remove and measure telescoping gauge with a
micrometer.
(5) Repeat the measurement with contacts length-
wise to engine cylinder head.
(6) Compare the crosswise to lengthwise measure-
ments to determine out-of-roundness. If the measure-
ments differ by more than 0.0635 mm (0.0025 in.),
ream the guide bore to accommodate an oversize
valve stem.

(7) Compare the measured valve guide bore diam-
eter with specifications (7.95-7.97 mm or 0.313-0.314
inch). If the measurement differs from specification
by more than 0.076 mm (0.003 inch), ream the guide
bore to accommodate an oversize valve stem.
ALTERNATIVE METHOD:
(1) Use a dial indicator to measure the lateral
movement of the valve stem (stem-to-guide clear-
ance). This must be done with the valve installed in
its guide and just off the valve seat (Fig. 11).
(2) Correct clearance is 0.025-0.0762 mm (0.001-
0.003 inch). If indicated movement exceeds the spec-
ification ream the valve guide to accommodate an
oversize valve stem.
Valve seats must be ground after reaming the
valve guides to ensure that the valve seat is con-
centric to the valve guide.
VALVE SPRING TENSION TEST
Use Valve Spring Tester C-647 and a torque
wrench to test each valve spring for the specified ten-
sion value (Fig. 12).
Replace valve springs that are not within specifica-
tions.
INSTALLATION
(1) Thoroughly clean the valve stems and the
valve guide bores.
(2) Lightly lubricate the stem.
(3) Install the valve in the original valve guide
bore.(4) Install the replacement valve stem oil seals on
the valve stems. If the 0.381 mm (0.015 inch) over-
size valve stems are used, oversize oil seals are re-
quired.
(5) Position the valve spring and retainer on the
engine cylinder head and compress the valve spring
with Valve Spring Compressor Tool MD-998772A.
(6) Install the valve locks and release the tool.
(7) Tap the valve spring from side to side with a
hammer to ensure that the spring is properly seated
at the engine cylinder head. Also tap the top of the
retainer to seat the valve locks.
(8) Install the engine cylinder head.
HYDRAULIC TAPPETS
Retain all the components in the same order as re-
moved.
REMOVAL

bracket. Tighten the bolts to 27 Nzm (20 ft. lbs.)
torque.
CAUTION: The serpentine drive belt must be routed
correctly. Incorrect routing can cause the water
pump to turn in the opposite direction causing the
engine to overheat.
(16) Install the serpentine drive belt and correctly
tension the belt (refer to Group 7, Cooling System for
the proper procedure).
(17) Install the air cleaner and ducting.
(18) Install the engine cylinder head cover.

housing and fill the cooling system to the specified
level (refer to Group 7, Cooling Systems for the
proper procedure).
(20) The automatic transmission throttle linkage
and cable must be adjusted after completing the en-
gine cylinder head installation (refer to Group 21,
Transmissions for the proper procedures).
(21) Install the temperature sending unit and con-
nect the wire connector.
(22) Connect the fuel pipe and vacuum advance
hose.
(23) Connect negative cable to battery.
(24) Connect the upper radiator hose and heater
hose at the engine thermostat housing.
(25) Fill the cooling system. Check for leaks.WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE
ENGINE IS OPERATING. DO NOT STAND IN DIRECT
LINE WITH THE FAN. DO NOT PUT HANDS NEAR
THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR FAN. DO NOT WEAR
