DISASSEMBLY
1. REMOVE VALVE LIFTERS AND SHIMS
HINT:
Arrange the valve lifters and shims in the correct order.
2. REMOVE VALVES
(a) Using SST, compress the valve spring and remove the 2
keepers.
SST 09202-70020 (09202-00010)
(b) Remove the spring retainer, valve spring and valve.
(c) Using needle-nose pliers, remove the oil seal.
(d) Using compressed air and a magnetic finger, remove the
spring seat by blowing air.
HINT:
Arrange the valves, valve springs, spring seats and spring re-
tainers in the correct order.
3. REMOVE CYLINDER HEAD REAR COVER
Remove the 6 bolts, rear cover and gasket.

INSPECTION
1. CLEAN TOP SURFACES OF PISTONS AND CYL-
INDER BLOCK
(a) Turn the crankshaft, and bring each piston to top dead
center (TDC). Using a gasket scraper, remove all the car-
bon from the piston top surface.
(b) Using a gasket scraper, remove all the gasket material
from the cylinder block surface.
(c) Using compressed air, blow carbon and oil from the bolt
holes.
CAUTION:
Protect your eyes when using high pressure compressed
air.
2. REMOVE GASKET MATERIAL
Using a gasket scraper, remove all the gasket material from the
cylinder block contact surface.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to scratch the cylinder block contact sur-
face.
3. CLEAN COMBUSTION CHAMBERS
Using a wire brush, remove all the carbon from the combustion
chambers.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to scratch the cylinder block contact sur-
face.
4. CLEAN CYLINDER HEADS
Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the cylinder
head.

9. INSPECT VALVE STEMS AND GUIDE BUSHINGS
(a) Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter of the
guide bushing.
Bushing inside diameter:
5.510 - 5.530 mm (0.2169 - 0.2177 in.)
(b) Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the valve
stem.
Valve stem diameter:
Intake5.470 - 5.485 mm (0.2154 - 0.2159 in.)
Exhaust5.465 - 5.480 mm (0.2152 - 0.2157 in.)
(c) Subtract the valve stem diameter measurement from the
guide bushing guide bushing inside diameter measure-
ment.
Standard oil clearance:
Intake0.025 - 0.060 mm (0.0010 - 0.0024 in.)
Exhaust0.030 - 0.065 mm (0.0012 - 0.0026 in.)
Maximum oil clearance:
Intake0.08 mm (0.0031 in.)
Exhaust0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
If the clearance is greater than maximum, replace the valve and
guide bushing.
10. INSPECT AND GRIND VALVES
(a) Grind the valve enough to remove pits and carbon.
(b) Check that the valve is ground to the correct valve face
angle.
Valve face angle: 44.5°
(c) Check the valve head margin thickness.
Standard margin thickness: 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
Minimum margin thickness: 0.5 mm (0.020 in.)
If the margin thickness is less than minimum, replace the valve.
