(2) Measure valve stems for wear. Refer to Valve
Dimension Chart.
CAUTION: Valve stems are chrome plated and
should not be polished.
(3) Remove carbon and varnish deposits from
inside of valve guides with a reliable guide cleaner.
(4) Measure valve stem guide clearance as follows:
a. Install valve into cylinder head so it is 14 mm
(0.551 in.) off the valve seat. A small piece of hose
may be used to hold valve in place.
b. Attach dial indicator Tool C-3339 to cylinder
head and set it at right angle of valve stem being
measured (Fig. 17).
(5) Move valve to and from the indicator. Refer to
Valve Guide Specification Chart.
(6) Ream the guides for valves with oversized
stems if dial indicator reading is excessive or if the
stems are scuffed or scored.

dure of 0.15 mm (0.005 in.), 0.40 mm (0.015 in.)
and 0.80 mm (0.030 in.) so the valve guides may
be reamed true in relation to the valve seat.
After reaming guides, the seat runout should be
measured and resurfaced if necessary. See
Refacing Valves and Valve Seats.VALVE GUIDES
NOTE: Replace cylinder head if guide does not
clean up with 0.80 mm (0.030 in.) oversize reamer,
or if guide is loose in cylinder head.
REFACING VALVES AND VALVE SEATS
The intake and exhaust valves have a 44-1/2 to 45
degree face angle. The valve seats have a 45 to 45-1/2
degree face angle. The valve face and valve seat
angles are shown in (Fig. 19).
VALVES
(1) Inspect the remaining margin after the valves
are refaced Refer to Valve Dimension Chart.
VALVE SEATS
CAUTION: Remove metal from valve seat only. Do
not remove metal from cylinder head (Fig. 20).
(1) When refacing valve seats, it is important that
the correct size valve guide pilot be used for reseat-
ing stones. A true and complete surface must be
obtained.
(2) Measure the concentricity of valve seat using
dial indicator. Total runout should not exceed 0.051
mm (0.002 in.) total indicator reading.
(3) Inspect the valve seat using Prussian blue to
determine where the valve contacts the seat. To do
this, coat valve seatLIGHTLYwith Prussian blue
then set valve in place. Rotate the valve with light
pressure. If the blue is transferred to the center of
valve face, contact is satisfactory. If the blue is trans-
ferred to top edge of valve face, lower valve seat with
a 15 degree stone. If the blue is transferred to the
bottom edge of valve face raise valve seat with a 65
degrees stone.

SERVICE PROCEDURES (Continued)

NOTE: Valve seats which are worn or burned can
be reworked, provided that correct angle and seat
width are maintained. Otherwise cylinder head must
be replaced.
(4) When seat is properly positioned the width of
intake seats should be 1.75 to 2.25 mm (0.69 to 0.088
in.) The width of the exhaust seats should be 1.50 to
2.00 mm (0.059 to 0.078 in.) (Fig. 19).
(5) Check the valve spring installed height after
refacing the valve and seat (Fig. 22).
TESTING VALVE SPRINGS
Whenever valves have been removed for inspection,
reconditioning or replacement, valve springs should
be tested (Fig. 21).As an example;the compression
length of the spring to be tested is 33.34 mm (1-5/16
inches). Turn table of Tool C-647 until surface is in
line with the 33.34 mm (1-5/16 inch) mark on the
threaded stud and the zero mark on the front. Place
spring over stud on the table and lift compressing
lever to set tone device. Pull on torque wrench until
ping is heard. Take reading on torque wrench at this
instant. Multiply this reading by two. This will give
the spring load at test length. Fractional measure-
ments are indicated on the table for finer adjust-
ments. Refer to specifications to obtain specified
height and allowable tensions. Discard the springs
that do not meet specifications.
