Cylinder HeadValve Seats
Warpage
NOTE: lf the camshaft-to-holder oil clearances (see
page 6-36) are not within specification, the cylinder head
cannot be resurfaced.
lf the camshaft-to-holder oil clearances are within sDeci,
fications, check the cylinder head lor warpage.
lf warpage is less than 0.05 mm (0.002 in), cylin-
der head resurfacing is not required.
lf warpage is between 0.05 mm (0.002 in) and
0.2 mm {0.008 in), resurface the cylinder head.
Maximum resurface limit is 0,2 mm (0.008 in)
based on a height of 93 mm (3.66 in).
Measure along edges, and three ways across center.

Reconditioning
'1. Renew the valve seats in the cylinder head using a
valve seat cutter.
NOTE: lf the guides are worn (see page 6-39).

Carefully cut a 45'seat, removing only enough
material to ensure a smooth and concentric seat.
Bevel the upper edge of the seat with the 30. cutter
and the lower edge of the seat with the 60' cutter.
Check the width of the seat and adjust accordingly.
Make one more very light pass with the 45" cutter to
remove any possible burrs caused by the other cut-
Iers.

The actual valve seating surface. as shown by the
blue comDound, should be centered on the seat.

must make a second cut with the 60'cutter to
move it down, then one more cut with the 45'
cutter to restore seat width,
. lf it is too low (closer to the vslve edge), you
must make a second cut with the 30" cutter to
move it uD, then one more cut with the 45'cutter
to restore seat width.
NOTE: The final cut should always be made with
the 45" cutter.

Select the proper replacement guides. and chill them
in the freezer section of a refrigerator for about an

Use a hot plate or oven to evenly heat the cylinder
head to 300"F (150'C). Monitor the temperature with
a cooking thermometer.
CAUTION:
. Do not use a torch; it may warp the head.
Do not got the head hottel than 300"F (150"C1;
excessive heat may loosen thg valve seats.
To avoid burns. use heayy gloves whon handling
