Actuator Cable Adiustment
1. Check that the actuator cable {A) moves smoothly
with no binding or sticking.
2. Start the engine.
3. Measure the amount of movement of the output
linkage (B) until the engine speed starts to increase.
At first, the output linkage should be located at the
fully closed position (C). The free play (D) should be
3.7510.5 mm (0.1510.02 in,).
4. lf the free play is not within specs, loosenthe
locknut (E). and turn the adjusting nut (F) untilthe
free play is as specified, then retighten the locknut

Cylinder Head Inspection for
Warpage
Remove the cylinder head {see page 6-23).
Inspect the camshaft (see page 6-29).
Check the cylinder head for warpage. Measure
along the edges, and three ways across the center.
. lf warpage is less than 0.05 mm (0.002 in.)
cylinder head resurfacing is not required.. lf warpage is between 0.05 mm (0.002 in.) and
0.2 mm (0.008 in.), resurface the cylinder head.. Maximum resurface limit is 0.2 mm (0.008 in,)
based on a height of 104 mm (4.09 in.).

Unscrew the camshaft holder bolts two turns at a
time, in a crisscross pattern. Then remove the
camshaft holders from the cylinder head.
Lift the camshafts out of the cylinder head, wipe
them clean. then inspect the lift ramps. Replace the
camshaft if any lobes are pitted, scored, or
excessively worn,
Clean the camshaft journal surfaces in the cylinder
head, then set the camshafts back in place. Place a
plastigage strip across each journal.
Install the camshaft holders, then tighten the bolts
to the specified torque as shown in step 2.
Remove the camshaft holders. Measure the widest
portion of plastigage on each journal.
. lf the camshaft-to-holder clearance is within
limits, go to step 1 1.. lf the camshaft-to-holder clearance is beyond the
service limit and the camshaft has been replaced,
replace the cylinder head.. lf the camshaft-to-holder clearance is beyond the
service limit and the camshaft has not been
replaced, go to step 10.

10. Check the total runout with the camshaft supported
on V-blocks,
.lfthetotal runout of the camshaft is within the
service limit, replace the cylinder head.. lf the total runout is beyond the service limit,
replace the camshaft and recheck the camshaft-
to-holder oil clearance. lf the oil clearance is still
beyond the service limit, replace the cylinder
neao.

Valve Guide Replacement (cont'dl
Apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to the outside
of the new valve guide. Install the guide from the
camshaft side of the head; use the special tool to
drive the guide in to the specified installed height
(A) o{the guide (B). lf you have all 16 guidesto do,
you may have to reheat the head.
Valve Guide Installed Height:
Intake: 15.2 16.2 mm (0.598-0.638 in.)
Exhaust: 15.5 16.5 mm (0.610-0.650 in.)

10.Coat both reamer and valve guide with cutting oil.
Rotate the reamer clockwise the full length of the
valve guide bore.

Continue to rotate the reamer clockwise while
removing it from the bore.
Thoroughly wash the guide in detergent and water
to remove any cutting residue.
Check the clearances with a valve (see page 6 32).
Verify that a valve slides in the intake and exhaust
valve guides without exening pressure.
