REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Continued)

CYLINDER BLOCK
(1) Clean cylinder block thoroughly and check all
core hole plugs for evidence of leaking.
(2) If new core plugs are installed, refer to Engine
Core Plugs outlined in this section.
(3) Examine block and cylinder bores for cracks or
fractures.
CYLINDER BORE INSPECTION
The cylinder walls should be checked for out-of-
round and taper with Tool C119 (Fig. 107). The cyl-
inder bore out-of-round is 0.050 mm (0.002 in.)
maximum and cylinder bore taper is 0.051 mm (0.002
in.) maximum. If the cylinder walls are badly scuffed
or scored, the cylinder block should be replaced, and
new pistons and rings fitted.
Measure the cylinder bore at three levels in direc-
tions A and B (Fig. 107). Top measurement should be
10 mm (3/8 in.) down and bottom measurement
should be 10 mm (3/8 in.) up from bottom of bore.
Refer to Cylinder Bore and Piston Specification
Chart.

CLEANING AND INSPECTION (Continued)

NOTE: Valve seats which are worn or burned can
be reworked, provided that correct angle and seat
width are maintained. Otherwise cylinder head must
be replaced.
(4) When seat is properly positioned the width of
intake seats should be 1.75 to 2.25 mm (0.69 to 0.088
in.) The width of the exhaust seats should be 1.50 to
2.00 mm (0.059 to 0.078 in.) (Fig. 19).
(5) Check the valve spring installed height after
refacing the valve and seat (Fig. 22).
TESTING VALVE SPRINGS
Whenever valves have been removed for inspection,
reconditioning or replacement, valve springs should
be tested (Fig. 21).As an example;the compression
length of the spring to be tested is 33.34 mm (1-5/16
inches). Turn table of Tool C-647 until surface is in
line with the 33.34 mm (1-5/16 inch) mark on the
threaded stud and the zero mark on the front. Place
spring over stud on the table and lift compressing
lever to set tone device. Pull on torque wrench until
ping is heard. Take reading on torque wrench at this
instant. Multiply this reading by two. This will give
the spring load at test length. Fractional measure-
ments are indicated on the table for finer adjust-
ments. Refer to specifications to obtain specified
height and allowable tensions. Discard the springs
that do not meet specifications.
