Valve seats, reworking
Note:
If a good seating pattern cannot be obtained by
grinding the valve seats (lapping), they must be
refaced (reworked):
Special tools and equipment
Depth gauge
Valve seat machining tool
Note:
When repairing engines with leaking valves, it is
not sufficient to reface the valve seats and
replace the valves. The valve guides must also
be checked for wear. This is particularly
important on high mileage engines Page 15

.
Only rework the valve seats as far as is
necessary to ensure a good seating pattern.
Before starting to rework the valve seats,
calculate the maximum permissible reworking
dimension.
