CYLINDER HEAD
• If the engine speed is out of the specified range, c
heck battery liquid for proper gravity. Check engine
speed again with normal battery gravity.
• If compression pressure is below minimum val ue, check valve clearances and parts associated with
combustion chamber (Valve, valve seat, piston, pi ston ring, cylinder bore, cylinder head, cylinder head
gasket). After the checking, measure the compression pressure again.
• If one cylinder has low compression pressure, pour small amount of engine oil into the spark plug hole
of the cylinder to re-check it for compression.
- If the added engine oil improves the compression, pi ston rings may be worn out or damaged. Check pis-
ton rings and replace if necessary.
- If the compression pressure remains at low level despite the addition of engine oil, valves may be mal- functioning. Check valves for damage. Repl ace valve or valve seat accordingly.
• If two adjacent cylinders have respectively low co mpression pressure and their compression remains
low even after the addition of engine oil, cylinder head gasket is leaking. In such a case, replace cylinder
head gasket.
9. After inspection is completed, install removed parts.
10. Start the engine, and confirm that the engine runs smoothly.
11. Perform trouble diagnosis. If DTC appears, erase it. Refer to EC-585, "
Trouble Diagnosis Introduction".

Cylinder Head Bolts Outer Diameter
• Cylinder head bolts are tightened by plastic zone tightening method. Whenever the size difference between (d1) and (d2)
exceeds the limit, replac e them with a new one.
• If reduction of outer diameter appear s in a position other than (d2),
use it as (d2) point.
Cylinder Head Distortion

Inspec-
tion After Disassembly".
1. Wipe off engine oil and remove water scale (like deposit ), gasket, sealant, carbon, etc. with a scraper.
CAUTION:
Never allow gasket debris to enter passag es for engine oil or engine coolant.
2. At each of several locations on bottom surface of cylinder head, measure the distortion in six di rections using straightedge (A)
and feeler gauge (B).

• Check if the contact area band is continuous all around the circum-
ference.
• If not, grind to adjust valve fitting and check again. If the contacting
surface still has NG conditions even after the re-check, replace
valve seat.
VALVE SEAT REPLACEMENT
When valve seat is removed, replace with oversized [0.5 mm (0.020 in)] valve seat.
1. Bore out old seat until it collapses. Boring shoul d not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess
in cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this. Refer to EM-223, "
Standard and Limit".
2. Ream cylinder head (1) recess diameter for service valve seat.
• Be sure to ream in circles concentric to the valve guide center.This will enable valve seat to fit correctly.
3. Heat cylinder head to 110° to 130°C (230° to 266° F) by soaking
in heated oil (A).
4. Use dry ice to thoroughly cool valve seats. Press-fit valve seat into cylinder head. WARNING:
• Never touch cold valve seats directly.
• Cylinder head contains heat, wh en working, wear protective equipment to avoid getting burned.
5. Using valve seat cutter set or valve seat grinder, finish valve seat to the specified dimensions. For dimensions, refer to EM-
223, "Standard and Limit".
CAUTION:
When using valve seat cutter, firmly grip the cutter handle
with both hands. Then, press on the contacting surface all
around the circumference to cu t in a single drive. Improper
pressure on the cutter or cutting many different times may
result in staged valve seat.
6. Using compound, grind to adjust valve fitting.
7. Check again for normal contact.
