Geometric features of valves seats.
Taking the valve out, the paint will be missing in the
contact zone. Its width must not be greater than the
following service limit:

rent appearances, as shown in the figure:
A - correct;
B - incorrect (contact face damaged);
C - incorrect (uneven seat width).
B
Also check the correct positioning of the contact area.
