Disassembly
NOTE:

During disassembly, be sure that the valve train
components are kept together and identified so
that they can be reinstalled in their original
locations.

Before removing the cylinder head from the engine
and before disassembling the valve mechanism,
perform a compression test and note the results.
1. Remove camshaft drive gear pulley fixing bolt (3),
then pulley (4).
2. Remove camshaft bracket fixing bolt (5), camshaf
t
bracket (6), then camshaft exhaust (7), and intake
side (8).
3. Remove tappet with shim (11).
4. Use the 5884024460 valve spring compresso
r
and 5884025470 valve spring compressor
adapter to remove the split collar (12), valve spring
with upper seat (13) and valve (14).

5. Remove spark plug (1).
CAUTION: Do not remove the spark plugs when the
head and plugs are hot. Clean dirt and debris from
spark plug recess areas before removal.
Clean
Cylinder head
Carefully remove all varnish, soot and carbon from the
bare metal. Do not use a motorized wire brush on any
gasket sealing surface.


Inspection and Repair
1. Cylinder head gasket and mating surfaces for
leaks, corrosion and blow-by. If the gasket has
failed, determine the cause.
Insufficient torque on head bolts
Improper installation
Loose or warped cylinder head
Missing dowel pins
Warped case surface
2. Cylinder head for cracks, especially between valve
seats and in the exhaust ports.
3. Cylinder head deck for corrosion, sand particles in
head and porosity.
CAUTION:

  Do not attempt to weld the cylinder head.
Replace it.

  Do not reuse cylinder head bolts.
4. Cylinder head deck, common chamber and
exhaust manifold mating surfaces for flatness.
These surfaces may be reconditioned by milling. I
f
the surfaces are “out of flat" by more than
specification, the surface should be ground to
within specifications. Replace the head if i
t
requires machining beyond the repairable limit.

Inspection and Repair
Valve Spring
CAUTION: Visually inspect the valve springs and
replace them if damage or abnormal wear is
evident.
1. Measure the free height of the springs. The
springs must be replaced if the free height is belo
w
the specified limit.
Standard: 44.6 mm (1.756 in)
Limit: 43.6 mm (1.717 in)





014RS004
2. Measure the valve spring squareness with a steel
square and replace the valve springs if the
measured value exceeds the specified limit.
Limit: 2 mm (0.079 in)


014RS005
3. Using a spring tester to compress the springs to
the installed height, measure the compressed
spring tension, and replace the springs if the
measured tension is below the specified limit.
At installed height: 35.0 mm (1.38 in)
Standard: 196 N (44 lb)
Limit: Less than 181 N (41 lb)

3. Check the clearance. If the clearance is less than
the specified value, ream the inside diameter o
f
valve guide. Using a sharp 6 mm reamer, ream the
valve guide to obtain the specified clearance.

Valve Seat
1. Measure the protrusion of the valve stem when a
new valve is installed in the cylinder head. If the
protrusion of the valve stem exceeds the limit,
replace the valve seat insert or the cylinder head
assembly.
