concentric. If not, replace the valve.
(2) If blue appears 360 around the valve seat, the
guide and face are concentric. If not, resurface the
seat.
(3) Check that the seat contact is in the middle of the
valve face with the width between 1.0 and 1.4 mm
(0.039 to 0.055 in.).
18. REPAIR VALVE SEATS
NOTICE:
Releasing the seat cutter pressure gradually helps to make
smoother valve seat faces.
(a) If the seating is too high on the valve face, use the 30 and
45 cutters to correct the seat.
(b) If the seating is too low on the valve face, use the 60 and
45 cutters to correct the seat.
