REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Continued)
CAUTION: The serpentine drive belt must be routed
correctly. Incorrect routing can cause the water
pump to turn in the opposite direction causing the
engine to overheat.

Group 7, Cooling System for the proper procedure).
(17) Install the air cleaner and ducting.
(18) Connect the hoses to the engine thermostat
housing and fill the cooling system to the specified
level (refer to Group 7, Cooling Systems for the
proper procedure).
(19) The automatic transmission throttle linkage
and cable must be adjusted after completing the
engine cylinder head installation (refer to Group 21,
Transmissions for the proper procedures).
(20) Install the temperature sending unit and con-
nect the wire connector.
(21) If equipped with air conditioning, install A/C
compressor and charge A/C system (refer to Group 24
Heating and Air Conditioning).
(22) Connect negative cable to battery.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE
ENGINE IS OPERATING. DO NOT STAND IN DIRECT

VALVES AND VALVE SPRINGS
This procedure is done with the engine cylinder
head removed from the block.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove the engine cylinder head from the cyl-
inder block.
(2) Use Valve
MD-998772A and compress each valve spring.
(3) Remove the valve locks, retainers, springs and
valve stem oil seals. Discard the oil seals.
(4) Use a smooth stone or a jewelers file to remove
any burrs on the top of the valve stem, especially
around the groove for the locks.
(5) Remove the valves, and place them in a rack in
the same order as removed.
INSTALLATION
(1) Thoroughly clean the valve stems and the valve
guide bores.
(2) Lightly lubricate the stem.
(3) Install the valve in the original valve guide
bore.
Spring Compressor
(4) Install the replacement valve stem oil seals on
the valve stems. If the 0.381 mm (0.015 inch) over-
size valve stems are used, oversize oil seals are
required.
(5) Position the valve spring and retainer on the
engine cylinder head and compress the valve spring
with Valve Spring Compressor Tool MD-998772A.
(6) Install the valve locks and release the tool.
(7) Tap the valve spring from side to side with a
hammer to ensure that the spring is properly seated
at the engine cylinder head. Also tap the top of the
retainer to seat the valve locks.
(8) Install the engine cylinder head.
HYDRAULIC TAPPETS
Retain all the components in the same order as
removed.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove the engine cylinder head (Refer to cyl-
inder head r&i in this section).
(2) Remove the push rods.
(3) Remove the tappets through the push rod open-
ings in the cylinder block with a Hydraulic Valve
Tappet Removal/Installation Tool (Fig. 57).

It is not necessary to charge the tappets with
engine oil. They will charge themselves within a very
short period of engine operation.
(1) Dip each tappet in Mopar Engine Oil Supple-
ment, or equivalent.
(2) Use Hydraulic Valve Tappet Removal/Installa-
tion Tool to install each tappet in the same bore from
where it was originally removed.
(3) Install the cylinder head assy (Refer to cylinder
head r&i in this section).
(4) Install the push rods in their original locations.
