5. INSPECT VALVE STEMS AND GUIDE BUSHINGS
(a) Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter of the
guide bushing.
Bushing inside diameter:
6.010 - 6.030 mm (0.2366 - 0.2374 in.)
(b) Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the valve
stem.
Valve stem diameter:
Intake5.970 - 5.985 mm (0.2350 - 0.2356 in.)
Exhaust5.965 - 5.980 mm (0.2348 - 0.2354 in.)
(c) Subtract the valve stem diameter measurement from the
guide bushing inside diameter measurement.
Standard oil clearance:
Intake0.025 - 0.060 mm (0.0010 - 0.0024 in.)
Exhaust0.030 - 0.065 mm (0.0012 - 0.0026 in.)

If the clearance is greater than maximum, replace the valve and
guide bushing (See page EM-40).
6. INSPECT AND GRIND VALVES
(a) Grind the valve enough to remove pits and carbon.
(b) Check that the valve is ground to the correct valve face
angle.

(d) Check the valve overall length.
Standard overall length:
Intake93.45 mm (3.6791 in.)
Exhaust93.89 mm (3.6768 in.)
Minimum overall length:
Intake92.95 mm (3.6594 in.)
Exhaust93.39 mm (3.6768 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.
(c) 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.
(d) Check the valve face and seat for the following:
(1) If blue appears 360° around the face, the valve is
concentric. If not, replace the valve.
(2) If blue appears 360° around the valve seat, the
guide and face are concentric. If not, resurface the
seat.
(3) Check that the seat contact is in 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°
and 45° cutters to correct the seat.

9. INSPECT CAMSHAFTS AND BEARINGS
Inspect the camshaft for runout.
(1) Place the camshaft on V-blocks.
(2) Using a dial indicator, measure the circle runout at
the center journal.
Maximum circle runout: 0.04 mm (0.0016 in.)
If the circle runout is greater than maximum, replace the cam-
shaft.
10. INSPECT CAM LOBES
Using a micrometer, measure the cam lobe height.
Standard cam lobe height:
Intake41.514 - 41.614 mm (1.6344 - 1.6383 in.)
Exhaust41.011 - 41.111 mm (1.6146 - 1.6185 in.)
Minimum cam lobe height:
Intake41.35 mm (1.6279 in.)
Exhaust40.85 mm (1.6083 in.)
If the cam lobe height is less than minimum, replace the cam-
shaft.
11. INSPECT CAMSHAFT JOURNALS
Using a micrometer, measure the journal diameter.
Journal diameter:
Exhaust No.124.949 - 24.965 mm (0.9822 - 0.9829 in.)
Others22.949 - 22.965 mm (0.9035 - 0.9041 in.)
If the journal diameter is not as specified, check the oil clear-
ance.
12. INSPECT CAMSHAFT BEARINGS
Check that bearings for flaking and scoring.
If the bearings are damaged, replace the bearing caps and cyl-
inder head as a set.

(d) Retighten the cylinder head bolts 90° in the numerical or-
der shown.
(e) Check that the painted mark is now at a 90° angle to front.
