Valve Guide Replacement
1. Using special tool, drive out the valve guide from the
combustion chamber side.
Valve guide replacer: 9-8523-1212-0
2. Apply engine oil to the outside of the valve guide.
Using special tool, drive in a new valve guide from
cylinder head upper face side, and check the valve
guide height.
Valve guide replacer: 9-8523-1212-0
NOTE:
If the valve guide has been removed, both the valve
and the valve guide must be replaced as a set.
Valve Thickness
1. Measure the valve thickness.
2. If the measured value is less than the specified limit,
the valve and the valve guide must be replaced as a
set.
Contact surface angle on valve seat on valve
1. Measure contact surface angle on valve seat.
2. If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace valve,
valve guide and valve seat as a set.

Valve Contact Width
1. Check the valve contact faces for roughness and
unevenness. Make smooth the valve contact sur-
faces.
2. Measure the valve contact width.
If the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the
valve seat insert must be replaced.
Valve Seat Insert Replacement
Valve Seat Insert Removal
1. Arc weld the entire inside circumference À of the
valve seat insert Á.
2. Allow the valve seat insert to cool for a few minutes.
This will invite contraction and make removal of the
valve seat insert easier.
3. Use a screwdriver  to pry the valve seat insert free.
Take care not to damage the cylinder head Ö .
4. Carefully remove carbon and other foreign material
from the cylinder head insert bore.
Valve Seat Insert Installation
1. Carefully place the attachment À (having a smaller
outside diameter than the valve seat insert) on the
valve seat insert Á .
Note:
The smooth side of the attachment must contact
the valve seat insert.
2. Use a bench press  to gradually apply pressure to
the attachment and press the valve seat insert into
place.
Note:
Do not apply an excessive amount of pressure with
the bench press. Damage to the valve seat insert
will result.
Valve Seat Insert Correction
1. Remove the carbon from the valve seat insert surface.
2. Use a valve cutter (15°, 45°, and 75° blades) to mini-
mize scratches and other rough areas. this will bring
the contact width back to the standard value.
Remove only the scratches and rough areas. Do not
cut away too much. Take care not to cut away un-
blemished areas of the valve seat surface.
