Note:
1. It is very important that the liquid gaskets listed above or their exact equivalent be used on the vehicle.
2. Be careful to use the specified amount of liquid gasket. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions at all times.
3. Be absolutely sure to remove all lubricants and moisture from the connecting surfaces before applying the liquid gasket.
The connecting surfaces must be perfectly dry.
4. LOCTITE 515 and LOCTITE 518 harden upon contact with a metal surface. Do not apply LOCTITE 515 or LOCTITE 518 between two metal surfaces having a clearance of
greater than 0.25 mm (0.01 in). Poor adhesion will result.

Valve Seat Insert Installation
1. Carefully place the attachment (1) (having a smaller outside diameter than the valve seat insert) on the valve
seat insert (2).
NOTE:
The smooth side of the attachment must contact the
valve seat insert.
2. Use a bench press (3) to gradually apply pressure to the attachment and press the valve seat insert into place.
NOTE:
Do not apply an excessive amount of pressure with
the bench press. Damage to the valve seat insert will
result.
Valve Seat Insert Correction
1. Remove the carbon from the valve seat insert surface.
2. Use a valve cutter (15 °, 45 °, and 75 ° blades) to minimize
scratches and other rough areas. This will bring the
contact width back to the standard value.
Remove only the scratches and rough areas. Do not cut
away too much. Take care not to cut away unblemished
areas of the valve seat surface.
Valve Seat Angle Degree
45
NOTE:
Use an adjustable valve cutter pilot.
Do not allow the valve cutter pilot to wobble inside the
valve guide.
3. Apply abrasive compound to the valve seat insert surface.
4. Insert the valve into the valve guide.
5. Turn the valve while tapping it to fit the valve seat insert.
6. Check that the valve contact width is correct.
7. Check that the valve seat insert surface is in contact with the entire circumference of the valve.

CAMSHAFT
Visually inspect the journals, the cams, the oil pump drive gear,
and the camshaft bearings for excessive wear and damage.
The camshaft and the camshaft bearings must be replaced if
these conditions are discovered during inspection.
Camshaft Journal Diameter
Use a micrometer to measure each camshaft journal diameter
in two directions (1 and 2). If the measured value is less than
the specified limit, the camshaft must be replaced.
Camshaft Journal Diameter mm (in)
Standard Limit
49.945 - 49.975
(1.9663 - 1.9675) 49.60 (1.953)
Cam Height
Measure the cam height (H) with a micrometer. If the
measured value is less than the specified limit, the camshaft
must be replaced.
Cam Height (H) mm (in)
Standard Limit
42.016 (1.6542) 41.65 (1.640)
Camshaft Run-Out
1. Mount the camshaft on V-blocks.
2. Measure the run-out with a dial indicator. If the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the
camshaft must be replaced.

Piston Head Projection Measuring Point
1. Use a dial indicator to measure the piston projection
amount.
2. Refer to the illustration for the piston head projection measuring positions.
All measuring positions should be as close as possible to
the cylinder liner.
3. Measure the points 1, 2, 3, 4 and obtain two differences 1- 2 and 3-4 on each cylinder.
Calculate the average value of the piston head projection
on each cylinder.
4. Obtain the maximum value in the four cylinders.
5. Determine the gasket grade required to the maximum value described above in accordance with the following
table.
