Valve lnstallation
When installing valves in cylinder head, coat valve
stems with oil before inserting into valve guides, and
make sure valves move up and down smoothly.
When valves and springs are in place, lightly tap the
end of each valve stem two or three times to ensure
proper seating of valve and valve keepers (use ham-
mer handle).
NOTE: Tap the valve stem only along its axis so you
do not bend the stem.
Valves, Valve Springs and
Valve SealsValve Guides
Valve Movement
Measure the guide-to-stem clearance with a dial indica-
tor while rocking the stem in the direction of normal
thrust (wobble method).

recheck using a new valve.
. lf measurement is now within the service limit,
reassemble using a new valve.
. lf measurement still exceeds limit, recheck using
alternate method below, then replace valve and
guide, if necessary.
NOTE: An alternate method ot checking guide to
stem clearance is to subtract the O.D. of the valve
stem. measured with a micrometer, from the l.D. ot
the valve guide, measured with an inside microme-
ter 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 measure'
ment and the smallest stem measurement should
not exceed the service limit.

Reaming
NOTE: For new valve guides only.
1. Coat both reamer and valve guide with cutting oil.
2, Rotate the reamer clockwise the full length of thevalve guide bore.
3. Continue to rotate the reamer clockwise whileremoving it from the bore.
4. Thoroughly wash the guide in detergent and waterto remove any cutting residue.
5. Check clearance with a valve (see page 6-70).
. Verify that the valve slides in the intake and ex-haust valve guides without exerting pressure.

Adjust the valve clearance (see page 6-44).
Install the rubber seal in the groove of the cylinder
head cover. Seat the seal in the recesses for the
camshaft first, then work it into the groove around
the outside edges.
NOTE:
. Before installing the rubber seal. thoroughly
clean the seal and the groove.
. When installing, make sure the seal is seatedsecurely in the corners of the recesses with nogap.

14. Apply liquid gasket to the rubbe. seal at the eightcorne.s of the recesses.
NOTE:
. Use liquid gasket, Part No. 08718 - 0001.. Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry
before applying liquid gasket.
a Do not install the parts if 20 minutes or more
have elapsed since applying liquid gasket.
Instead,.eapply liquid gasket after removing oldresidue.
r After assembly, wait at least 20 minutes beforefilling the engine with oil.
Apply liquid gasket tothe shaded areas.

lntake Air System
Throttle Body
Description
The throttle body is ot the single-barrel side-draft 1ype.
The lower portion of the throttle valve is heated by en-gine coolant from the cylinder head. The idle adjusting
screw which increases/dec.eases bvDass air and the
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Control Canister port are
located on the top of the throttle body.

CAUTION: Do not adiust the thlottle stop screw. lt ispreset at the lactory.
1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,OOO rpm with
no load (A/T in S or E position, M/T in neutral) until
the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
2. Disconnect the vacuum hose (to the EVAP control
canister) from the top of the throttle body; connect
a vacuum, gauge to the throttle body.

3. Allow the engine to idle and check that the gauge
indicates no vacuum.
a li there is vacuum, check the throttle cable (see
page 1 1-'l 18, 119).
Check that vacuum is indicated on the gauge when
the throttle is opened slightly from idle.
a lf the gauge indicates no vacuum, check the throt-
tle body port. lf the throttle body port is clogged.
clean it with carburetor cleaner.
Stop the engine and check that the throttle cable
operates smoothly without binding or sticking.
a lf there are any abnormalities in the above steps,
check for:
- Excessive wear or Dlav in the throttle valve shaft.
Sticky or binding throttle lever at full close po-
srtron.
Clearance between throttle stop screw and throt-
tle lever at tull close Dosition.
