5.
Working from the camshaft side, use the driver andan air hammer to drive the guide about 2 mm (O.l
in) towards the combustion chamber. This willknock off some of the carbon and make removaleasier. Hold the air hammer directly in line with thevalve guide to prevent damaging the driver.
CAUTION: Always wear satety goggles or a faceshield when driving valve guidss.
Turn the head over and drive the guide out towardthe camshaft side of the head.
li a valve guide won't move, drill it out with a 8.0mm (5/16 in) bit, then try again. Dritt guides onty inextreme cases; you could damage the cylinder headif the guide breaks.
Remove the new guide(s) from the freezer, one at atlme, as you need them.

Apply clean engine oil to the bolt threads and underthe bolt heads.
4. Tighten the cylinder head bolts in two steps. In thefirst step tighten all bolts, in sequence, to about 29
N.m {3.0 kgf.m,22 lbf.ft); in the finat step, tighten inthe same sequence to 85 N.m (8.7 kgf.m,63 lbf.ft).
Use a beam-type torque wrench. When using a pre-
set-type torque wrench, be sure to tighten slowly
and do not overtighten.
lf a bolt makes any noise while you are torquing it,loosen the bolt, and retighten it from the 1st step.
