Valve guides
BMW does not supply valve guides as replacement parts. If a
valve guide is excessively worn, it should be reamed to ac-
cept oversized
valve stems. Valve guide specifications are
listed in
Tabled. Valve guide specifications.
- Valve guides should be checked for wear using a new valve.
Be sure to thoroughly inspect the cylinder head to ensure
that it can be reused before reworking the guides.
NOTE-
International Organization for Standardization (1.30) toler-
ance classes are listed in Table c.
IS0 allowances are
based on nominal sizes and should be used to determine
proper fit. Most machine shops should have this informa-
tion available.
Replacement valve guides may be available through after-
market suppliers. Valve guide replacement requires spe-
cial tools and a press. It is also necessary to heat the
cylinder head and chill the valve guides when replacing the
guides.
BMW supplies oversize valves. See Table d. Valve guide
specifications for additional information.

Valve stem oil seals
The purpose of the valve stem oil seal is to prevent excess oil
from entering the combustion chamber. The sign of faulty
valve stem oil seals is excessive oil consumption and smoke
from the exhaust immediately after starting and during decel-
eration.
NOTE-
Valve stem oil seals should not be reused. If valves are re-
moved, new valve stem oil seals should be installed.
Valve stem oil seal replacement requires that the cylinder
head be disassembled and the valves removed as described
above under Valves, removing and installing.
NOTE-
BMW special tools are available to remove the valve stem oil
seals. As an alternative, standard valve seal removal tools
are available from most automotive parts stores.
Lubricate new seal and install using hand pressure only. Be
sure to install valve spring
seat(s) before installing seal.

Valve seats
< The valve seats should be resurfaced whenever new valves
or valve guides are installed. Cutters are required to resur-
face the seats. Always check the valves for leaks after recon-
ditioning a valve seat as described above. Table e. Valve
seat specifications lists valve seat dimensions.
