2. Coat the outside of valve guide (5) with oil.
3. Position the valve guide (5) and knock into the cylinder head as far as the stop (arrow) of the insertion
drift (3). Check the secure seati ng of the valve guide (5). The instal lation depth of the valve guide (5)
is set by the drift punch (3).

4. Check the valve guide (5) with the feeler gauge (4). The side of the feeler gauge (4) marked
with '0' must be inserted completely into the valve gui de (5). The valve guide (5) must be replaced if the
feeler gauge (4) cannot be insert ed completely. The valve guide (5) is made of powdered metal, so
reaming is not possible.
