(d) Check the valve overall length.
Standard overall length:
Intake98.4 mm (3.874 in.)
Exhaust97.4 mm (3.854 in.)
Minimum overall length:
Intake97.9 mm (3.854 in.)
Exhaust97.4 mm (3.835 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 minimum.
7. INSPECT AND CLEAN VALVE SEATS
(a) Using a 45° carbide cutter, resurface the valve seats.
Remove only enough metal to clean the seats.
(b) Check the valve seating position. Apply a light coat of prussian blue (or white lead) to the
valve face. Lightly press the valve against the seat. Do not
rotate valve.
(c) Check the valve face and seat for the following:
If blue appears 360 ° around the face, the valve is
concentric. If not, replace the valve.
If blue appears 360 ° around the valve seat, the
guide and face are concentric. If not, resurface the
seat.
Check that the seat contact is in the middle of the
valve face with these width:
Intake1.2 − 1.6 mm (0.047 − 0.063 in.)
Exhaust1.0 − 1.4 mm (0.039 − 0.055 in.)

If not, correct the valve seats as follows: (1) Intake:If the seating is too high on the valve face, use 30 °
and 45 ° cutters to correct the seat.
(2) If the seating is too low on the valve face, use 75° and 45 ° cutters to correct the seat.
(d) Hand−lap the valve and valve seat with an abrasive com- pound.
(e) After hand−lapping, clean the valve and valve seat.
8. INSPECT VALVE SPRINGS
(a) Using a steel square, measure the deviation of the valve spring.
Maximum deviation: 2.0 mm (0.079 in.)
If the deviation is greater than maximum, replace the valve
spring.
(b) Using vernier calipers, measure the free length of the valve spring.
Free length: 43.94 − 45.06 mm (1.7299 − 1.7740 in.)
If the free length is not as specified, replace the valve spring.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
The owners are responsible for these maintenance and inspection items.
They can be done by the owner or they can have them done at a service sh\
op.
These items include those which should be checked on a daily basis, thos\

Items and procedures for general maintenance are as follows.
1. GENERAL NOTES
Maintenance items may vary from country to country. Check the owner’s manual supplement in which
the maintenance schedule is shown.
Every service item in the periodic maintenance schedule must be performe\
d.
Periodic maintenance service must be performed according to whichever interval in\
the periodic main-
tenance schedule occurs first, the odometer reading (miles) or the time inter\
val (months).
Maintenance service after the last period should be performed at the same interval \
as before unless
otherwise noted.
Failure to do even one item can cause the engine to run poorly and incre\
ase exhaust emissions.
2. LIGHTS
(a) Check that the headlights, stop lights, taillights, turn signal lights, \
and other lights are all working.
(b) Check the headlights aim.
3. WARNING LIGHTS AND BUZZERS
Check that all warning lights and buzzers function properly.
4. HORN
Check that it is working.
5. WINDSHIELD
Check for scratches, pits or abrasions.
6. WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER
(a) Check operation of the wipers and washer.
(b) Check that the wipers do not streak.
7. WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER
Check that air comes out from the defroster outlet when operating the heater \
or air conditioner at defroster
mode.
8. REAR VIEW MIRROR
Check that it is mounted securely.
9. SUN VISORS
Check that they move freely and mounted securely.
10. STEELING WHEEL
Check that it has the specified freeplay. Be alert for changes in steering condition, such as hard steering,
excessive freeplay or strange noises.
11. SEATS
(a) Check that all front seat controls such as seat adjusters, seatback recl\
iner, etc. operate smoothly.
(b) Check that all latches lock securely in any position.
(c) Check that the head restraints move up and down smoothly and that the lo\
cks hold securely in any latch position.
(d) For folding −down rear seat backs, check that the latches look securely.
12. SEAT BELTS
(a) Check that the seat belt system such as buckles, retractors and anchors operat\
e properly and smooth-
ly.
(b) Check that the belt webbing is not cut, frayed, worn or damaged.
