Cylinder Head
Engine Compression Inspection
1. Warm up the engine to normal operating
temperature (cooling fan comes on).
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Remove the intake manifold cover (see step 1 onpage 6-22).
4, Disconnect all four injector connectors.
5. Start the engine, and let it run until it stalls.
6. Remove the iour ignition coils (see page 4-18).
7. Remove the four spark plugs.
8. Attach the compression gauge to the spark plug

Open the throttle fully, then crank the engine with
the starter motor and measure the compression.
Compression Pressure
Above 930 kpa (9.5 kgf/cm', 135 psi)
Measure the compression on the remaining
cylinders,
Maximum vadation
Within 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm', 28 psi)
lf the compression is not within specifications,
check these items, then remeasure the

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.

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 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.

, { 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.

Valves, Springs, and Valve Seals Installation
Special Tools Required
Valve spring compressor attachment 07VAE-00101 0A
1. Coat the valve stems with engine oil. lnstall the
valves in the valve guides.
2. Check that the valves move up and down smoothly.
Installthe spring seats on the cylinder head.
Install the new valve seals (A) using the valve guide
seal installer (B).
NOTE: The exhaust valve seal (C) has a black spring(D), and the intake valve seal (E) has a white spring(F). They are not interchangeable.
6.
lnstallthe valve spring. Place the end ofthe valve
spring with closely wound coils toward the cylinder
n eao.
Install the valve retainer.
Installthe valve spring compressor, Compress the
spring, and install the valve keepers. Remove the
valve spring compressor.
Lightly tap the end of each valve stem two or three
times with a plastic mallet (A) to ensure proper
seating of the valve and valve keepers. Tap the
valve stem only along its axis so you do not bend
the stem.

Use only filters with a built-in bypass system.
Installthe oilfilter by hand.
After the rubber seal seats, tighten the oil filter
clockwise with the special tool.
Tighten: 3/4 turn clockwise.

5. lf 4 numbers or marks (1 to 4 or V to VVVV) are
printed around the outside of the filter, use the
following procedure to tighten the filter.
. Spin the filter on until its seal lightly seats against
the block, and note which number or mark is at
the bottom.. Tighten the filter by turning it clockwise 3
numbers or marks from the one you noted. For
example, if number 2 is at the bottom when the
seal is seated, tighten the filter until the number 1
comes around the bottom.
