• Pull out the valve 5 from the other side.
• Remove the valve stem seal 6 and valve spring seat 7.
NOTE:
Removal of valves completes ordinary disassembling work. If
valve guides have to be removed for replacement after inspect-
ing related parts, carry out the steps shown in valve guide ser-
vicing. (3-32)
CYLINDER HEAD DISTORTION
• Decarbonize the combustion chambers.
Check the gasketed surface of the cylinder head for distortion
with a straightedge and thickness gauge, taking a clearance
reading at several places indicated. If the largest reading at any
position of the straightedge exceeds the limit, replace the cylin-
der head.
Cylinder head distortion
Service Limit: 0.05 mm (0.002 in)
09900-20803: Thickness gauge
VALVE FACE WEAR
Visually inspect each valve for wear of its seating face. Replace
any valve with an abnormally worn face.
The thickness T decreases as the wear of the face advances.
Measure the thickness and, if the thickness is found to have
been reduced to the limit, replace it.
Valve head thickness
Service Limit T: 0.5 mm (0.02 in)
09900-20102: Vernier calipers
VALVE STEM RUNOUT
Support the valve with "V" blocks, as shown, and check its
runout with a dial gauge.
The valve must be replaced if the runout exceeds the limit.
Valve stem runout
Service Limit: 0.05 mm (0.002 in)
09900-20701: Magnetic stand
09900-20607: Dial gauge (1/100 mm)
