lIf it exceeds the limit, replace valve and/or valve guide.
Valve Guide Replacement
When removing valve guide, replace it with oversized [0.2 mm (0.0008 in)] valve guide.
1. Heat cylinder head to 110 to 130°C(230to266°F) in oil bath.
2. Using the valve guide drift (commercial service tool), tap valve
guides out from the combustion chamber side.
WARNING:
Cylinder head contains heat, when working, wear protective
equipment to avoid getting burned.
3. Ream cylinder head valve guide hole with the valve guide
reamer (commercial service tool).
4. Heat cylinder head to 110 to 130°C(230to266°F) in oil bath.

5. Using the valve guide drift (commercial service tool), press fit
valve guides from camshaft side, referring to the dimension
showninthefigure.
WARNING:
Cylinder head contains heat, when working, wear protective
equipment to avoid getting burned.
6. Using the valve guide reamer (commercial service tool), perform
reaming to the press-fitted valve guides.
Valve Seat Contact
lBefore starting this check, confirm that the dimension of valve
guide and valves are as specified.
lApply red lead primer on contacting surfaces of valves seat and
of valve face to examine the conditions of contacting surfaces.
lMake sure that the paint on contacting surfaces is continuous
along the entire circumference.
lIf there are abnormal indications, grind the valve and check the
contact again. If malfunction indications still persist, replace
valve seat.
Valve Seat Replacement
When removing valve seat, replace it with oversized [0.5 mm (0.020 in)] valve seat.
1. Bore out old seat until it collapses. Boring should not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess
in cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this. Refer toEM-139, "
Valve Seat".
2. Ream cylinder head recess diameter for service valve seat.
lBe sure to ream in circles concentric to the valve guide center.
lThis will enable valve seat to fit correctly.Projection “L” : 10.4 - 10.6 mm (0.409 - 0.417 in)

3. Heat cylinder head to approximately 110 to 130°C(230to
266°F) in oil bath.
4. After cooling valve seats sufficiently with dry ice, press fit it to
cylinder head.
WARNING:
Cylinder head contains heat, when working, wear protective
equipment to avoid getting burned.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the cooled valve seats directly by hand.
5. Using the valve seat cutter set (commercial service tool), finish
processing referring to the dimensions shown in the figure.
Refer toEM-139, "
Va l v e S e a t".
CAUTION:
When using the valve seat cutter set, grasp cutter handle
with both hands, press cutter onto contacting face all
around, and cut thoroughly. If cutter is pressed unevenly or
repeatedly, the valve seat surface may be damaged.
6. Using compound, perform valve fitting.
7. Check again to make sure that contacting status is satisfactory.
For details, Refer toEM-103, "
Valve Seat Contact".
8. Use the depth gauge to measure the distance between the
mounting surface of cylinder head spring seat and the valve
stem end. If the distance is shorter than specified, repeat step 5
above to adjust it. If it is longer, replace valve seat with a new
one.
Valve Spring Square
lPosition the try square to valve spring, turn the spring, and mea-
sure the maximum clearance value between top surface of
spring and the try square.
lIf it exceeds the limit, replace valve spring.

bearing cap, all in the same direction. (When using a protractor)
d. Then, tighten 90 degrees. (angle tightening)
CAUTION:
Always use either the angle wrench [SST] or protractor dur-
ing angular tightening. Avoid tightening based on visual
checks alone.
