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.
