FAULT DIAGNOSIS
3.1 Introduction
The following diagnostic procedures are provided to assist properly qualified persons to identify and rectify the faults
relating to the engine which are most likely to encountered. Reference is made to the Electrical Diagnostic Manual
(EDM), which should be consulted where necessary. Faults related to the cooling system are dealt with in Section 4.1
and to the fuel system in Section 5.1 in the appropriate Vehicle Service Manual (VSM).

Note: No attempt should be made to clean up a burnt or
badly pitted valve face by extensive 'grinding in' of
the valve to the seat.
m Lightly lap the valves into the seats with a fine grinding
compound. The reseating operation should leave the fin- ished surfaces smooth. Excessive lapping will groove the
valve face resulting in a poor seat when the engine is hot.
A
- Correctly seated B - Undesirable condition C - Rectified condition
. Totestthe valvesforconcentricity withtheirseats,coatthe face of the valve with Prussian blue or similar, and rotate
the valve against the seat. If the valve face is concentric
with the valve stem, a mark will be made all around the
face. Should
a mark be made on only one side of the face,
the face is not concentric with the valve stem. Clean the
valve and again coat with Prussian blue and rotate the
valve against the seat.
. Check that the valve guide is concentric with the valve
seat,
if not, the seat must be re-cut. Whenever valves are
renewed the seats must be re-cut prior to lapping of the
valves. Check valve guide wear by inserting a new valve
into the guide to be checked,
lift it 6 mm from its seat and
rock it sideways.
. Movement of the valve across its seat (A Fig. 2) must not
exceed 0,04 to 0,07 mm. Should the movement exceed
this tolerance, the valve guide must be renewed. Ensure
that the relevant valve guide is selected prior to fitting.
. When new guides are to be fitted they should always be
one size larger than the old guide.
. Cylinder head bores will require reaming as follows: Re- move the old valve guide and ream the cylinder head to
the relevant dimension. Immerse the cylinder head in
boiling waterfor30 minutes. Coat the guide with graphite
grease, and drive in the guide from thecamshaft side until
the snap
-ring is seated in the groove.
b: The interference should not be sufficient to require
the use of excessive force when fitting the guide.
1 After fitting a valve guide, the valve seat must be recut using Service Tool MS 204 (Fig. 3). Examine the valveseat
inserts for pitting or excess wear. If renewal is necessary,
proceed as follows.
1 Remove the inserts by machining, leaving approximately 0,25 mm of metal which can easily be removed by hand
without damaging the cylinder head. Measure the diam- eter of the insert recess in the cylinder head. Grind down
the outside diameter of the new insert to a dimension 0,08
mm larger than the insert recess.
Heat the cylinder head for 30 minutes from cold to a tem- perature of 15OOC 1, Fit the insert ensuring that it beds
evenly in the recess. When the cylinder head has cooled,
re
-cut the valve seat using Service Tool MS 204. For cor- rect valve seat angles see Service Data in the Preliminary
Pages.
If new valve inserts have been fitted, the clearance
between valve stem and cam must be checked, see
Service Data in the Preliminary Pages.
