Inspect valve stem end face for pitting and wear. If pitting or wear
is found there, valve stem end may be resurfaced, but not so
much as to grind off its chamfer. When it is worn so much that its
chamfer is gone, replace valve.

Seating contact width:
Create contact pattern on each valve in the usual manner, i.e., by
giving uniform coat of marking compound to valve seat and by ro-
tatingly tapping seat with valve head. Valve lapper (tool used in
valve lapping) must be used.
Pattern produced on seating face of valve must be a continuous
ring without any break, and the width “a” of pattern must be within
specified range.

Valve seat repair:
A valve seat (2) not producing a uniform contact with its valve or
showing width of seating contact that is out of specified range
must be repaired by regrinding or by cutting and regrinding and
finished by lapping.
1) EXHAUST VALVE SEAT: Use valve seat cutters (1) to make
two cuts as illustrated in figure. Two cutters must be used: the
first for making 15 angle, and the second for making 45
angle. The second cut must be made to produce desired seat
width.
Seat width for exhaust valve seat:
1.1 – 1.3 mm (0.0433 – 0.0512 in.)
2) INTAKE VALVE SEAT: Cutting sequence is the same as for ex-
haust valve seats.
Seat width for intake valve seat:
1.1 – 1.3 mm (0.0433 – 0.0512 in.)
3) VALVE LAPPING: Lap valve on seat in two steps, first with
coarse size lapping compound applied to face and the second
with fine-size compound, each time using valve lapper accord-
ing to usual lapping method.
Cylinder Head

Remove all carbon from combustion chambers.
NOTE:
Do not use any sharp-edged tool to scrape off carbon. Be
careful not to scuff or nick metal surfaces when decarbon-
ing. The same applies to valves and valve seats, too.

Check cylinder head for cracks in intake and exhaust ports, com-
bustion chambers, and head surface.

Flatness of gasketed surface:
Using a straightedge and thickness gauge, check surface at a to-
tal of 6 locations. If distortion limit, given below, is exceeded, cor-
rect gasketed surface with a surface plate and abrasive paper of
about #400 (Waterproof silicon carbide abrasive paper): place
paper on and over surface plate, and rub gasketed surface
against paper to grind off high spots. Should this fail to reduce
thickness gauge readings to within limit, replace cylinder head.
Leakage of combustion gases from this gasketed joint is often
due to warped gasketed surface: such leakage results in reduced
power output.
Limit of distortion: 0.05 mm (0.002 in.)

Distortion of manifold seating faces:
Check seating faces of cylinder head for manifolds, using a
straightedge and thickness gauge, in order to determine whether
these faces should be corrected or cylinder head replaced.
Limit of distortion: 0.10 mm (0.004 in.)

Valve Springs

Referring to data given below, check to be sure that each spring
is in sound condition, free of any evidence of breakage or weak-
ening. Remember, weakened valve springs can cause chatter,
not to mention possibility of reducing power output due to gas
leakage caused by decreased seating pressure.

Spring squareness:
Use a square and surface plate to check each spring for square-
ness in terms of clearance between end of valve spring and
square. Valve springs found to exhibit a larger clearance than limit
given below must be replaced.

ASSEMBLY
1) Before installing valve guide into cylinder head, ream guide hole
with special tool (11 mm reamer) to remove burrs and make it
truly round.
Special Tool
(A): 09916-34542
(B): 09916-38210
2) Install valve guide to cylinder head.
Heat cylinder head uniformly at a temperature of 80 to 100C
(176 to 212F) so that head will not be distorted, and drive new
valve guide into hole with special tools. Drive in new valve guide
until special tool (Valve guide installer) contacts cylinder head.
After installing, make sure that valve guide protrudes by 11.5
mm (0.45 in.) from cylinder head.
Special Tool
(C): 09916-56011
(D): 09916-58210
NOTE:

Do not reuse valve guide once disassembled.
Install new valve guide (Oversize).

Intake and exhaust valve guides are identical.
Valve guide oversize: 0.03 mm (0.0012 in.)
Valve guide protrusion (In and Ex): 11.5 mm (0.45 in.)
3) Ream valve guide bore with special tool (5.5 mm reamer). After
reaming, clean bore.

5) Install new valve stem seal (1) to valve guide.
After applying engine oil to seal and spindle of special tool (Valve
guide installer handle), fit oil seal to spindle, and then install seal
to valve guide by pushing special tool by hand.
After installing, check to be sure that seal is properly fixed to
valve guide.
Special Tool
(A): 09917-98221
(B): 09916-58210
NOTE:

Do not reuse seal once disassembled. Be sure to install
new seal.

When installing, never tap or hit special tool with a ham-
mer or else. Install seal to guide only by pushing special
tool by hand. Tapping or hitting special tool may cause
damage to seal.
6) Install valve to valve guide.
Before installing valve to valve guide, apply engine oil to stem
seal, valve guide bore, and valve stem.
7) Install valve spring and spring retainer.
Each valve spring has top end (large-pitch (1) end) and bottom
end (small-pitch (2) end). Be sure to position spring in place with
its bottom end (small-pitch end) facing the bottom (valve spring
seat side).
8) Using special tools (Valve lifter), compress valve spring and fit
two valve cotters (1) into groove in valve stem.
