in air pressure due to an air cleaner element restric-
tion moves the diaphragm and the yellow disc will
indicate the size of the air drop.
CAUTION: Certain engine degreasers or cleaners
may discolor or damage the plastic housing of the
Filter Minder. Cover and tape the Filter Minder if any
engine degreasers or cleaners are to be used.
To test, turn the engine off. If the yellow disc (Fig.
12) has reached the red colored zone on the gradu-
ated scale, the air cleaner element should be
replaced. Refer to the proceeding removal/installation
paragraphs.
Resetting the Filter Minder:After the air
cleaner (filter) element has been replaced, press the
rubber button on the top of the Filter Minder (Fig.
12). This will allow the yellow colored disc to reset.
After the button has been pressed, the yellow disc
should spring back to the UP position.
If the Filter Minder gauge has reached the red col-
ored zone, and after an examination of the air
cleaner (filter) element, the element appears to be
clean, the high reading may be due to a temporary
condition such as snow build-up at the air intake.
Temporary high restrictions may also occur if the air
cleaner (filter) element has gotten wet such as during
a heavy rain or snow. If this occurs, allow the ele-
ment to dry out during normal engine operation.
Reset the rubber button on the top of the Filter
Minder and retest after the element has dried.Removal
(1) Loosen air inlet tube clamp at air cleaner hous-
ing inlet (Fig. 11). Remove this tube at air cleaner
housing cover.
(2) The housing cover is equipped with four (4)
spring clips (Fig. 11) and is hinged at front with plas-
tic tabs. Unlatch clips from top of air cleaner housing
and tilt housing cover up and forward for cover
removal.
(3) Remove air cleaner element from air cleaner
housing.
INSTALLATION
(1) Before installing a new air cleaner element,
clean inside of air cleaner housing.
(2) Position air cleaner cover to tabs on front of air
cleaner housing. Latch four spring clips to seal cover
to housing.
(3) Install air inlet tube at air cleaner housing
inlet. Note hose alignment notches at both inlet hose

INTAKE/EXHAUST VALVES &
SEATS
DESCRIPTION
The valves are made of heat resistant steel, and
have chrome plated stems to prevent scuffing. The
intake and exhaust valves are both similar in head
diameter and overall length, but they have unique
face angles which makes them non-interchangeable.
The valves are distinguished by unique dimples on
the exhaust valve head (Fig. 35).
The exhaust valve springs are made from high
strength, chrome silicon steel. The exhaust valve
springs are also exhaust brake compatible.
STANDARD PROCEDURE-VALVES,GUIDES AND
SPRINGS
REMOVAL
(1) Remove cylinder head (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/
CYLINDER HEAD - REMOVAL).
(2) Support cylinder head on stands, or install
head bolts upside down (through combustion surface
side) to protect injector tips from damage from work
bench.
(3) Remove the injector clamp (Fig. 36) from the
cylinder(s) to be serviced.Do not remove the bolt
shown in (Fig. 36).

INSTALLATION
(1) Install new valve seals. The yellow springs are
for the intake valves and the green seals are for the
exhaust valves.(2) Install the valves in their original postion. The
exhaust valves are identified by a dimple on the
valve head (Fig. 46).

STANDARD PROCEDUREÐVALVE LASH
ADJUSTMENT AND VERIFICATION
NOTE: To obtain accurate readings, valve lash mea-
surements AND adjustments should only be per-
formed when the engine coolant temperature is less
than 60É C (140É F).
The 24±valve overhead system is a ªlow-mainte-
nanceº design. Routine adjustments are no longer
necessary, however, measurement should still take
place when trouble-shooting performance problems,
or upon completion of a repair that includes removal
and installation of the valve train components.
(1) Disconnect battery negative cables.

INSTALLATIONÐCAMSHAFT BEARINGS
(1) Apply a coating of Loctitet640 Adhesive to the
backside of the new bushing. Avoid getting adhesive
in the oil hole.
(2) Use a universal cam bushing installation tool
and install the bushing so that it is even with the
front face of the cylinder block. The oil hole must be
aligned. A 3.2 mm (0.128 inch) diameter rod must be
able to pass through the hole (Fig. 97).

DO NOT push it in farther than it will go with the
thrust washer in place. Pushing it too far can dis-
lodge the plug in the rear of the camshaft bore and
cause an oil leak.

install in their original location (Fig. 87).Verify that
they are seated in the tappets.
(8) Lubricate the valve tips with engine oil and
install the crossheads in their original locations.
(9) Lubricate the crossheads and push rod sockets
with engine oil and install the rocker arms and ped-
estals in their original locations (Fig. 86). Tighten
bolts to 36 N´m (27 ft. lbs.) torque.
