INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.

Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Before starting engine, bleed air from fuel piping. Refer to FL-18, "Air Bleeding" .

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.

Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
* Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

CYLINDER HEAD

3. Heat cylinder head to approximately 110 to 130°C (230 to
266°F) by soaking in heated oil.
4. After cooling valve seats sufficiently with dry ice, press fit it to cylinder head.
CAUTION:

Do not touch the cooled valve seats directly by hand.

Cylinder head contains heat, when working, wear protective equipment to avoid getting burned.
5. Using the valve seat cutter set (commercial service tool), finish
processing referring to the dimensions shown in the figure.
Refer to EM-261, "
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 to EM-219, "
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

Position 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.

If it exceeds the limit, replace valve spring.
