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).
Legend
(1) Attachment
(2) Valve Seat Insert
(3) Bench Press
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: 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 contract width is correct.
7. Check that the valve seat insert surface is in
contact with the entire circumference of the valve.
