REMOVING THE VALVES
The following procedure applies to all of the
valves and related components.
Before removing the internal parts of the cylin-
der head (e.g., valves, valve springs, valve
seats), make sure the valves properly seal.
1. Remove:
valve lifter
1
valve pad 2
Make a note of the position of each valve lifter
and valve pad so that they can be reinstalled in
their original place.
2. Check:
valve sealing
Leakage at the valve seat Check the valve
face, valve seat, and valve seat width.
Refer to “CHECKING THE VALVE SEATS”.
a. Pour a clean solvent
a into the intake and
exhaust ports.
b. Check that the valves properly seal.
There should be no leakage at the valve seat
1.
3. Remove:
valve cotters
1
Remove the valve cotters by compressing the
valve spring with the valve spring compressor
2 and the valve spring compressor attachment
3.

CHECKING THE VALVE SEATS
The following procedure applies to all of the
valves and valve seats.
1. Eliminate:
carbon deposits
(from the valve face and valve seat)
2. Check:
valve seat
Pitting / wear Replace the cylinder head.
3. Measure:
valve seat width

Out of specification Replace the cylinder
head.

a. Apply Mechanic’s blueing dye (Dykem)
1
onto the valve face.
b. Install the valve into the cylinder head.
c. Press the valve through the valve guide and
onto the valve seat to make a clear impres-
sion.
d. Measure the valve seat width.
Where the valve seat and valve face contacted
one another, the blueing will have been re-
moved.
4. Lap:
valve face
valve seat
After replacing the cylinder head or replacing
the valve and valve guide, the valve seat and
valve face should be lapped.

CAUTION:
NOTE:
a. Apply a coarse lapping compound a to the
valve face.
Do not let the lapping compound enter the
gap between the valve stem and the valve
guide.
b. Apply molybdenum disulfide oil onto the
valve stem.
c. Install the valve into the cylinder head.
d. Turn the valve until the valve face and valve
seat are evenly polished, then clean off all of
the lapping compound.
For the best lapping results, lightly tap the valve
seat while rotating the valve back and forth be-
tween your hands.
e. Apply a fine lapping compound to the valve
face and repeat the above steps.
f. After every lapping procedure, be sure to
clean off all of the lapping compound from
the valve face and valve seat.
g. Apply Mechanic’s blueing dye (Dykem) onto
the valve face.
h. Install the valve into the cylinder head.
i. Press the valve through the valve guide and
onto the valve seat to make a clear impres-
sion.
j. Measure the valve seat width
a again. If the
valve seat width is out of specification, reface
and lap the valve seat.

CHECKING THE VALVE SPRINGS
The following procedure applies to all of the
valve springs.
1. Measure:
valve spring free length

Out of specification Replace the valve
spring.
