(3) How to Neutralize Sodium
Place a container filled with more than 10 liters of water
in a well ventilated large space.
Wear rubber gloves and goggles, and carefully take out
broken valves from the cylinder head.
Put a broken valve in the water-filled container and quickly
get away from the container at least 2 or 3 m.
Caution
1. Valves must be neutralized one at a time.
2. Put a valve in the container only after soduim
in the preceding one has completely reacted with
water.
Keep fire away from the container during the
neutralization. The resulting hydrogen gas is highly
explosive.
When the reaction has finished (there is no more
generation of hydrogen gas), take the valves out of the
container with large tweezers or the like.
NOTE
The reaction occurs when water enters the cavity in the
valve. Hydrogen gas may be trapped inside the valve,
temporarily blocking the water passage. In such a case,
wait until hydrogen gas in released and remaining soduim
reacts with water.
After the neutralization of soduim, water in the container
contains soduim hydroxide and is highly alkaline. The
water solution should be disposed of according to local
regulations.
Caution
1. Do not let the solution contact the eyes or the
skin.
2. Should it get in the eyes, immediately flush them
with clean water thoroughly, and receive medical
attention. When it contacts the skin, wash with
ample amounts of clean water.
INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS
AVALVE STEM SEAL INSTALLATION
(1) Install the valve spring seat.
(2) The special tool must be used to install the valve stem
seal. Improper installation could result in oil leaks past
the valve guide.
Caution
Do not reuse removed valve stem seals.

ENGINE – Cylinder Head and Valves11-46
BVALVE SPRING INSTALLATION
Direct the valve spring end with identification color toward
the spring retainer.
CRETAINER LOCK INSTALLATION
The valve spring, if excessively compressed, causes the
bottom end of the retainer to be in contact with, and damage,
the stem seal.
DCYLINDER HEAD BOLT INSTALLATION
(1) When installing the cylinder head bolts, check that the
shank length of each bolt meets the limit. If the limit is
exceeded, replace the bolt.
Limit: Max. 99.4 mm
(2) Apply engine oil to the bolt threads and to the washers.
(3) Using the special tool (MB991654) and according to the
tightening sequence, tighten the bolts to the specified
torque.
Tightening torque: 78 Nm
(4) Loosen all bolts fully.
(5) Retighten the loosened bolts to a torque of 20 Nm in
the specified tightening sequence.

(6) Make paint marks on the cylinder head bolt heads and
cylinder head.
(7) Give a 90° turn to the cylinder head bolts in the specified
tightening sequence.
(8) Give another 90° turn to the cylinder head bolts and make
sure that the paint mark on the head of each cylinder
head bolt and that on the cylinder head are on the same
straight line.
Caution
1. If the bolt is turned less than 90°, proper fastening
performance may not be expected. When
tightening the bolt, therefore, be careful to give
a sufficient turn to it.
2. If the bolt is overtightened, loosen the bolt
completely and then retighten it by repeating the
tightening procedure from step (1).
INSPECTION
CYLINDER HEAD
(1) Check the cylinder head gasket surface for flatness by
using a straightedge and thickness gauge.
Standard value: 0.05 mm
Limit: 0.2 mm
(2) If the service limit is exceeded, correct to meet
specification.
Grinding limit: *0.2 mm
* Includes combined with cylinder block grinding.

VALVE GUIDE REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
(1) Force the valve guide out toward the cylinder block using
a press.
(2) Machine the valve guide hole in the cylinder head to
the size of the oversize valve guide to be installed.
Caution
Do not use the valve guide of the same size as the
removed one.

(3) Press-fit the valve guide until it protrude specified value
19.5 mm as shown in the illustration.
Caution
1. Press the valve guide from the cylinder head top
surface.
2. Valve guide for intake valve and that for exhaust
valve are different in length. (45.5 mm for intake
valve; 50.5 mm for exhaust valve)
(4) After the valve guide has been installed, insert a new
valve to check for smooth sliding motion.
