lf any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system. lf all the input tests prove OK,
the cruise control unit may be faulty. Substitute a known-good cruise control unit and retest. lf the system works
properly, replace the cruise control unit.

3. Select the correct thickness feeler gauge for the
valves you're going to check.
Intake: 0.21 0.25 mm (0.008-0.010 in.)
Exhaust; 0.28 0.32 mm (0.011 0.013 in.)
Adiusting screw locations:
No. 1
EXHAUST
No. 2 No.3 No. 4

4.Insert the feeler gauge {A) between the adjusting
screw (B) and the end ofthe valve stem, and slide it
back and forth; you should feel a slight amount of
d rag.

Valves, Springs, and Valve Seals Removal
Special Tools Bequired
Valve spring compressor attachment 07VAE-001010A
ldentify the valves and valve springs as they are
removed so that each item can be reinstalled in its
original position.
1. Remove the cylinder head (see page 6-23).
2. Using an appropriate-sized socket (A) and plastic
mallet {B), lightly tap the valve retainer to loosen
the valve keepers.
Install the spring compressor. Compress the spring,
and remove lhe valve keepers.
4. Installthe valve guide seal remover.

Valve Seat Reconditioning
1. Inspect valve stem-to-guide clearance (see page 6-
32). lf the valve guides are worn, replace them (see
page 6-33) before cutting the valve seats.
2. Renew the valve seats in the cylinder head using a
valve seat cutter.
Carefully cut a 45'seat, removing only enough
material to ensure a smooth and concentric seat.
Bevel the upper and lower edges at the angles
shown in the illustration.
Check the width of the seat and adjust accordingly.

- 45'
, { 67.5'
5. Make one more very light pass with the 45" cutter
to remove any possible burrs caused by the other
cutters.
Valve Seat Width:
Standard (New): 1.25 1.55 mm {0.049 0.061 in.)
Service Limit: 2.00 mm (0.079 in.)
6. After resurfacing the seat, inspect for even valve
seating: Apply Prussian Blue compound (A) to the
valve face. Insert the valve in its original location in
the head, then lift it and snap it closed against the
seat several trmes.
1.The actual valve seating surface (B), as shown by
the blue compound, should be centered on the seat.
. lf it is too high (closer to the valve stem), you
must make a second cut with the 67.5' cutter to
move it down, then one more cut with the 45"
cutter to restore seat width.. lf it is too low (close to the valve edge), you must
make a second cut with the 35'cutter (intake
sidel or the 30" cutter (exhaust side) to move it up,
then make one more cut with the 45" cutter to
restore seat width.
NOTE: The final cut should always be made with
the 45'cutter.

Valves, Springs, and Valve Seals Installation
Special Tools Required
Valve spring compressor attachment 07VAE-00101 0A
1. Coat the valve stems with engine oil. lnstall the
valves in the valve guides.
2. Check that the valves move up and down smoothly.
Installthe spring seats on the cylinder head.
Install the new valve seals (A) using the valve guide
seal installer (B).
NOTE: The exhaust valve seal (C) has a black spring(D), and the intake valve seal (E) has a white spring(F). They are not interchangeable.
6.
lnstallthe valve spring. Place the end ofthe valve
spring with closely wound coils toward the cylinder
n eao.
Install the valve retainer.
Installthe valve spring compressor, Compress the
spring, and install the valve keepers. Remove the
valve spring compressor.
Lightly tap the end of each valve stem two or three
times with a plastic mallet (A) to ensure proper
seating of the valve and valve keepers. Tap the
valve stem only along its axis so you do not bend
the stem.

Gylinder Head
Cylinder Head Gover Installation (cont'd)
Set the spark plug seals (A) on the spark plug tubes.
Once the cylinder head cover (B) is on the cylinderhead, slide the cover slightly back and forth to seat
the head cover gasket.
Inspect the cover washers (C). Replace any washer
that is damaged or deteriorated.
6-42
7. Tighten the bolts in two or three steps. In the final
step, tighten all bolts, in sequence, to 9.8 N.m (1.0
kgf.m, 7.2 lbf.ft).
8. Install the dipstick (A) and breather hose iB).

Cylinder Honing
Only a scored or scratched cylinder bore should be
noneo.
Measure the cylinder bores {see page 7-15).
lf the block is to be reused, hone the cylinders and
remeasure the bores.
Hone the cylinder bores with honing oil and a fine(400 grit) stone in a 60 degree cross-hatch pattern
(A). Use only a rigid hone with 400 grit or finer
stone such as Sunnen, Ammco, or equivalent. Do
not use stones that are worn or broken.
When honing is complete, thoroughly clean the
engine block of all metal particles. Wash the
cylinder bores with hot soapy water, then dry and
oil them immediately to prevent rusting. Never use
solvent, it will only redistribute the grit on the
cylinder walls.
lf scoring or scratches are still present in the
cylinder bores after honing to the service limit,
rebore the cylinder block. Some light vertical
scoring and scratching is acceptable if it is not deep
enough to catch your fingernail and does not run
the full length of the bore.
