Valve Stem-to-Guide Clearance\
Inspection
1.Remove the valves (see page 6-3'1).
Slide the valve out of its guide about 10 mm. then
measure the guide-to-stem clearance with a dial
indicator while rocking the stem in the direction of
normal thrust (wobble method).. lf the measurement exceedsthe service limit,
recheck it using a new valve.. lf the measurement is nowwithin the service
limit, reassemble using a new valve.. lf the measurementwith a newvalve still
exceeds the service limit, go to step 3.

Subtract the O.D. of the valve stem. measured with
a micrometer, from the LD. of the valve guide,
measured with an inside micrometer or ball gauge.
Take the measurements in three places along the
valve stem and three places inside the valve guide.
The difference between the largest guide
measurement and the smallest stem measurement
should not exceed the service limit

Valve Guide Replacement
Special Tools Required. Valve guide driver, 5.5 mm 07742-0010100. Valve guide reamer, 5.5 mm 07HAH-PJ7o108
1.Inspect valve stem-to-guide clearance (see page 6-
32t.
As illustrated below, use a commercially available
air-impact valve guide driver (A) modified to fit the
diameter of the valve guides. In most cases, the
same procedure can be done using the special tool
and a conventional hammer.
10.8 mm{0.,|2 in.)
3. Select the proper replacement guides, and chill
lhem in the freezer section of a refriqerator for
about an hour.
4. Use a hot plate or oven to evenly heat the cylinder
head to 300'F (150"C). Monitor the temperature
with a cooking thermometer. Do not getthe head
hotterthan 300'F (150"C); excessive heat may
loosen the valve seats.

7.
Working from the camshaft side. use the driver and
an aar hammerto drive the guide about 2 mm (0.1
in.)towards the combustion chamber. This will
knock off some of the carbon and make removal
easier. Hold the air hammer directly in line with the
valve guide to prevent damaging the driver.
Turn lhe head over, and drive the guide out toward
the camshaft side of the head.
lf a valve guide won't move, drill it out with a I mm
(5/16 inch) bit. then try again. Drill guides only in
extreme cases;you could damage the cylinder
head if the guide breaks.
Remove the new guide(s) from the freezer, one at a
time, as vou need them.

Valve Guide Replacement (cont'dl
Apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to the outside
of the new valve guide. Install the guide from the
camshaft side of the head; use the special tool to
drive the guide in to the specified installed height
(A) o{the guide (B). lf you have all 16 guidesto do,
you may have to reheat the head.
Valve Guide Installed Height:
Intake: 15.2 16.2 mm (0.598-0.638 in.)
Exhaust: 15.5 16.5 mm (0.610-0.650 in.)

10.Coat both reamer and valve guide with cutting oil.
Rotate the reamer clockwise the full length of the
valve guide bore.
O7HAH.PJ7O1OB
Continue to rotate the reamer clockwise while
removing it from the bore.
Thoroughly wash the guide in detergent and water
to remove any cutting residue.
Check the clearances with a valve (see page 6 32).
Verify that a valve slides in the intake and exhaust
valve guides without exening pressure.

Valve Seat Reconditioning
1. Inspect valve stem-to-guide clearance (see page 6-
32). lf the valve guides are worn, replace them (see
page 6-33) before cutting the valve seats.
2. Renew the valve seats in the cylinder head using a
valve seat cutter.
Carefully cut a 45'seat, removing only enough
material to ensure a smooth and concentric seat.
Bevel the upper and lower edges at the angles
shown in the illustration.
Check the width of the seat and adjust accordingly.

- 45'
, { 67.5'
5. Make one more very light pass with the 45" cutter
to remove any possible burrs caused by the other
cutters.
Valve Seat Width:
Standard (New): 1.25 1.55 mm {0.049 0.061 in.)
Service Limit: 2.00 mm (0.079 in.)
6. After resurfacing the seat, inspect for even valve
seating: Apply Prussian Blue compound (A) to the
valve face. Insert the valve in its original location in
the head, then lift it and snap it closed against the
seat several trmes.
1.The actual valve seating surface (B), as shown by
the blue compound, should be centered on the seat.
. lf it is too high (closer to the valve stem), you
must make a second cut with the 67.5' cutter to
move it down, then one more cut with the 45"
cutter to restore seat width.. lf it is too low (close to the valve edge), you must
make a second cut with the 35'cutter (intake
sidel or the 30" cutter (exhaust side) to move it up,
then make one more cut with the 45" cutter to
restore seat width.
NOTE: The final cut should always be made with
the 45'cutter.
