ENGVALVES AND VALVE SPRINGS
5. Measure:
Runout (valve stem)
Out of specification → Replace.
NOTE:
When installing a new valve always replace
the guide.
If the valve is removed or replaced always
replace the oil seal.
6. Eliminate:
Carbon deposits
(from the valve face and valve seat)
7. Inspect:
Valve seat
Pitting/wear → Reface the valve seat.
Runout limit:
0.01 mm (0.0004 in)
8. Measure:
Valve seat width a
Out of specification → Reface the valve
seat.
Valve seat width:
Intake:
0.9 ~ 1.1 mm (0.0354 ~ 0.0433 in)
: 1.6 mm (0.0630 in)
Exhaust:
0.9 ~ 1.1 mm (0.0354 ~ 0.0433 in)
: 1.6 mm (0.0630 in)
Measurement steps:
Apply Mechanic’s blueing dye (Dykem) b
to the valve face.
Install the valve into the cylinder head.
Press the valve through the valve guide
and onto the valve seat to make a clear
pattern.
Measure the valve seat width. Where the
valve seat and valve face made contact,
blueing will have been removed.
If the valve seat is too wide, too narrow, or
the seat is not centered, the valve seat
must be refaced.

ENGVALVES AND VALVE SPRINGS
9. Lap:
Valve face
Valve seat
NOTE:
After refacing the valve seat or replacing the
valve and valve guide, the valve seat and
valve face should be lapped.
Lapping steps:
Apply a coarse lapping compound to the
valve face.
CAUTION:
Do not let the compound enter the gap
between the valve stem and the guide.
Apply molybdenum disulfide oil to the
valve stem.
Install the valve into the cylinder head.
Turn the valve until the valve face and
valve seat are evenly polished, then clean
off all of the compound.
NOTE:
For best lapping results, lightly tap the valve
seat while rotating the valve back and forth
between your hands.
Apply a fine lapping compound to the
valve face and repeat the above steps.
NOTE:
After every lapping operation be sure to
clean off all of the compound from the valve
face and valve seat.
Apply Mechanic’s blueing dye (Dykem) to
the valve face.
Install the valve into the cylinder head.
Press the valve through the valve guide
and onto the valve seat to make a clear
pattern.
Measure the valve seat width again. If the
valve seat width is out of specification,
reface and relap the valve seat.

Combination of cylinder head and valve lifter
1. Combination:
For this combination, match the paint color
on the cylinder head with that on the valve
lifter according to the chart below.
NOTE:
When you purchase a cylinder head, you can-
not designate its size. Choose the valve lifter
that matches the above chart.Combination

CYLINDER AND PISTON
Piston pin
1. Inspect:

Piston pin
Blue discoloration/grooves
→
Replace,
then inspect the lubrication system.
2. Measure:

Piston pin-to-piston clearance
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
Piston ring and piston
1. Install:

Piston ring
Onto the piston.
NOTE:


Be sure to install the piston rings so that the
manufacturer’s marks or numbers are
located on the upper side of the rings.

Lubricate the piston and piston rings liberally
with engine oil.
Measurement steps:

Measure the outside diameter (piston pin)
a
.
If out of specification, replace the piston
pin.
Outside diameter (piston pin):
15.991 ~ 16.000 mm
(0.6296 ~ 0.6299 in)

Measure the inside diameter (piston)
b
.
Inside diameter (piston):
16.002 ~ 16.013 mm
(0.6300 ~ 0.6304 in)

Calculate the piston pin-to-piston clear-
ance with the following formula.
Piston pin-to-piston clearance =
Inside diameter (piston)
b
–
Outside diameter (piston pin)
a


If out of specification, replace the piston.
Piston pin-to-piston clearance:
0.002 ~ 0.022 mm
(0.0001 ~ 0.0009 in)
: 0.07 mm (0.003 in)
