Cylinder Head/Valve Gear

1-211 to remove valve springs.

If valve collets are tight, detach with slight blows
from a hammer on the assembly lever.
K - Use MP 1-206 to pull of valve stem seals.
Installing
K - Fit plastic sleeve -A- onto the valve stem in
order to avoid damage to the new valve stem
seals.

tool MP 1-212 and carefully push onto the
valve guide.

Notes:
♦ After installing the camshaft, it is essential
to wait about 30 minutes before starting the
engine. The hydraulic valve clearance com-
pensation elements have to settle (otherwise
valves will strike the pistons).
♦ After working on the valve gear, carefully
crank engine at least 2 revolutions to ensure
that no valve strikes a piston when engine is
started.
