lPress the valve through the valve guide
and onto the valve seat to make a clear
pattern.
lMeasure the valve seat width. Where the
valve seat and valve face made contact,
blueing will have been removed.
lIf the valve seat is too wide, too narrow, or
the seat is not centered, the valve seat
must be refaced.
9. Lap:
lValve face
lValve seat
NOTE:
After refacing the valve seat or replacing the
valve and valve guide, the valve seat and
valve face should be lapped.
Lapping steps:
lApply a coarse lapping compound to the
valve face.
CAUTION:
Do not let the compound enter the gap
between the valve stem and the valve
guide.
lApply molybdenum disulfide oil to the
