VALVE SEAT CONTACT

After confirming that the dimensions of valve guides and valves
are within the specifications, perform this procedure.

Apply prussian blue (or white lead) onto contacting surface of
valve seat to check the condition of the valve contact on the sur-
face.

Check if the contact area band is continuous all around the cir-
cumference.

If not, grind to adjust valve fitting and check again. If the contact-
ing surface still has “NG” conditions even after the re-check,
replace valve seat. Refer to EM-241, "
VALVE SEAT REPLACE-
MENT" .
VALVE SEAT REPLACEMENT
When valve seat is removed, replace with oversized [0.5 mm (0.020 in)] valve seat.
1. Bore out old seat until it collapses. Boring should not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess in cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this. Refer to EM-280, "
Va l v e S e a t" .
CAUTION:
Prevent to scratch cylinder head by excessive boring.
2. Ream cylinder head recess diameter for service valve seat.

Be sure to ream in circles concentric to valve guide center.
This will enable valve to fit correctly.
3. Heat cylinder head to 110 to 130 °C (230 to 266 °F) by soaking in
heated oil.
4. Provide valve seats cooled well with dry ice. Force fit valve seat into cylinder head. CAUTION:

Avoid directly touching cold valve seats.

Cylinder head contains heat. When working, wear protective equipment to avoid getting burned.
5. Using valve seat cutter set (commercial service tool) or valve seat grinder, finish seat to the specified dimensions. Refer to
EM-280, "
Valve Seat" .
CAUTION:
When using valve seat cutter, firmly grip cutter handle with
both hands. Then, press on the contacting surface all
around the circumference to cut in a single drive. Improper
pressure on with cutter or cutting many different times may
result in stage valve seat.

6. Using compound, grind to adjust valve fitting.
7. Check again for normal contact. Refer to EM-241, "
VALVE SEAT CONTACT" .
VALVE SPRING SQUARENESS

Set try square along the side of valve spring and rotate spring.
Measure the maximum clearance between the top face of spring
and try square.

If it exceeds the limit, replace valve spring.
VALVE SPRING DIMENSIONS AND VALVE SPRING PRESSURE LOAD

Check valve spring pressure at the specified spring height.

If the installation load or load with valve open is out of the standard, replace valve spring. Limit : 2.0 mm (0.079 in)

If out of the standard, measure the main bearing oil clearance. Then use undersize bearing. Refer to EM-
273, "MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT PIN JOURNAL DIAMETER

Measure the outer diameter of crankshaft pin journal with
micrometer.

If out of the standard, measure the connecting rod bearing oil
clearance. Then use undersize bearing. Refer to EM-272,
"CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER

Measure the dimensions at four different points as shown in the
figure on each main journal and pin journal with micrometer.

Out-of-round is indicated by the difference in the dimensions
between “X” and “Y” at “A” and “B”.

Taper is indicated by the difference in the dimensions between
“A” and “B” at “X” and “Y”.

If the measured value exceeds the limit, correct or replace crankshaft.

If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected main journal and/or pin journal. Then
select the main bearing and/or connecting rod bearing. Refer to EM-273, "
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEAR-
ANCE" and/or EM-272, "CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT

Place V-block on precise flat table, and support the journals on
the both end of crankshaft.

Place dial indicator straight up on the No. 3 journal.

While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer on
dial indicator. (Total indicator reading)

If it exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft. Standard : 63.940 - 63.964 mm (2.5173 - 2.5183 in) dia.
Standard : 51.956 - 51.974 mm (2.0455 - 2.0462 in) dia.
