3. VALVE GUIDE
1) Check the clearance between valve guide and stem.
The clearance can be checked by measuring the outside
diameter of valve stem and the inside diameter of valve
guide with outside and inside micrometers respectively.
Clearance between the valve guide and valve stem:
Standard
Intake
0.035—0.062 mm (0.0014—0.0024 in)
Exhaust
0.040—0.067 mm (0.0016—0.0026 in)
Limit
0.15 mm (0.0059 in)
Valve guide inner diameter:
6.000—6.012 mm (0.2362—0.2367 in)
Valve stem outer diameters:
Intake
5.950—5.965 mm (0.2343—0.2348 in)
Exhaust
5.945—5.960 mm (0.2341—0.2346 in)
G2M0150
2) If the clearance between valve guide and stem exceeds
the specification, replace guide as follows:
(1) Place cylinder head on ST1 with the combustion
chamber upward so that valve guides enter the holes
in ST1.
(2) Insert ST2 into valve guide and press it down to
remove valve guide.

(4) Before installing new oversize valve guide, make
sure that neither scratches nor damages exist on the
inside surface of the valve guide holes in cylinder head.
(5) Put new valve guide, coated with sufficient oil, in
cylinder, and insert ST1 into valve guide. Press in until
the valve guide upper end is flush with the upper sur-
face of ST2.

(6) Check the valve guide protrusion.
Valve guide protrusion: L
17.5—18.0 mm (0.689—0.709 in)
B2M0078
(7) Ream the inside of valve guide with ST. Gently
rotate the reamer clockwise while pressing it lightly into
valve guide, and return it also rotating clockwise. After
reaming, clean valve guide to remove chips.
ST 499767400 VALVE GUIDE REAMER
CAUTION:
Apply engine oil to the reamer when reaming.
If the inner surface of the valve guide is torn, the
edge of the reamer should be slightly ground with an
oil stone.
If the inner surface of the valve guide becomes lus-
trous and the reamer does not chips, use a new reamer
or remedy the reamer.
(8) Recheck the contact condition between valve and
valve seat after replacing valve guide.
