21.Remove valve stem oil seal using LRT-12-071.
Discard stem seal.
22.Repeat procedure for remaining valves,
keeping components in their fitted order.
Inspect
1.Clean camshafts, bearing running surfaces in
carrier and cylinder head, carrier and cylinder
head mating faces.
2.Inspect camshafts and replace camshafts if
scored, pitted or excessively worn.
3.Position camshafts in cylinder head and place
Plastigauge across each journal.
CAUTION: Ensure camshafts are in their
correct fitted locations. Camshafts are
colour coded - Inlet - Orange; Exhaust -
Blue.
4.Refit camshaft carrier, fit bolts and using
sequence shown, tighten to 10 Nm (7.5 lbf.ft).
Do not rotate camshafts.5.Using the sequence shown, progressively
loosen and remove camshaft carrier bolts.
Release and remove camshaft carrier from
cylinder head.
6.Measure widest part of Plastigauge on each
journal.
+ GENERAL DATA, Engine - KV6
Petrol.
7.If clearance is excessive, fit new camshafts and
repeat check. If clearance is still excessive
renew cylinder head.
8.Remove all traces of Plastigauge using an oily
rag.
9.Clean sealing surfaces of cylinder heads.
Clean inlet and exhaust manifold mating faces.
CAUTION: Do not use a metal scraper.
10.Decarbonise combustion areas of cylinder
heads
11.Blow out all oilways and coolant passages.
12.Check cylinder head for damage, pay particular
attention to sealing faces.

31.Check that fitted height of valve guide, 'A', is
6.00 mm (0.24 in).
32.Check condition of valve seats and existing
valves that are to be re-used.
33.Renew valve seat inserts as necessary.
CAUTION: Do not damage counterbore
when removing insert.
34.Cool replacement valve seat inserts using
liquid nitrogen and press into cylinder head in
one continuous operation.
CAUTION: Do not heat cylinder head.
Inserts must not stand proud of combustion
face on completion of cutting operation.
35.Cut valve seats using a suitable pilot and the
following cutters:
l15° - To cut first angle
l45° - Make final cut and remove any burrs
l60° - To narrow seat and obtain correct
valve seat width
36.Check valve seat width and face angle:
lSeat width - 'A' - Inlet = 1.2 mm (0.05 in);
Exhaust = 1.6 mm (0.06 in)
lValve face angle - 'B' - Inlet and exhaust =
45°
37.Lap each valve to its seat using grinding paste.38.Apply Prussian Blue to valve seat, insert valve
and press it into position several times without
rotating. Remove and check valve for even and
central seating: seating position shown by
Prussian Blue should be in the centre of valve
face: a: High towards stem, increase 60° cut
and restore seat width. b: Low towards edge,
increase 45° cut and restore seat width. Lap
and recheck valve seating.
39.Check valve stem fitted height - 'A'.
+ GENERAL DATA, Engine - KV6
Petrol.
CAUTION: If valve stem fitted height is
above service limit, fit new valve and re-
check. If still over limit, renew valve seat
insert.
40.Clean valve springs and lubricate valves.
Reassembly
1.Lubricate new valve stem oil seals with clean
engine oil.
2.Using tool LRT-12-071 fit new valve stem oil
seals.
3.Fit valves.

4.Fit spring and spring cap.
5.Position LRT-12-034 and adapter LRT-12-
034/1to spring cap and compress valve spring.
6.Fit collets.
7.Release valve spring and remove tool LRT-12-
034.
8.Using a wooden dowel and mallet, lightly tap
top of each valve two or three times to seat
valves and collets.
9.Thoroughly clean and lubricate hydraulic
tappets with clean engine oil. Fit hydraulic
tappets to original bores in cylinder head.
10.Ensure that mating faces of camshaft carrier
and cylinder head are clean and dry.
11.Lubricate camshafts and bearing journals with
clean engine oil.
12.Position camshafts in cylinder head with rear
timing gear drive slots in each camshaft facing
towards the centre as shown.
CAUTION: Ensure camshafts are in their
correct fitted locations. Camshafts are
colour coded - Inlet - Orange; Exhaust -
Blue.13.Apply continuous thin beads of sealant, Part
No. STC 4600, to paths on camshaft carrier as
shown. Spread sealant to an even film using a
roller.
CAUTION: To avoid contamination,
assembly should be completed immediately
after application of sealant.
14.Position camshaft carrier, fit and progressively
tighten bolts in the sequence shown to 10 Nm
(7.5 lbf.ft).
