CYLINDER HEAD/ VALVE
Remove the valve spring cotters, retainers, springs
and valves.
CAUTION:
To prevent loss of tension, do not com-
press the valve springs more than neces-
sary to remove the cotters.
• Position the large retainer on the com-
pressor attachment, so the compressor
will
not touch the cylinder head.
NOTE :
Mark all disassembled parts to ensure correct
reassembly.
Remove the valve stem seals.
Remove carbon deposits from the combustion
chamber and clean off the head gasket surfaces.
NOTE:
Avoid damaging the gasket surfaces.
Gaskets will come off easier if soaked in
solvent.
CYLINDER HEAD INSPECTION
Check the spark plug hole and valve areas for
cracks.
Check the cylinder head for warpage with a
straight edge and fee ler gauge.
