INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD FOR CRACKS
Using a dye penetrant, check the combustion chamber, in-
take and exhaust ports, head surface and the top of the
head for cracks.
If cracked, replace the head.

CLEAN VALVES
9.
(a)
Using a gasket scraper, chip any carbon from the valve
head.
(b)
Using a wire brush, thoroughly clean the valve.
INSPECT VALVE STEMS AND GUIDE BUSHINGS
(a)
Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter
of the valve guide bushing.
Guide inside diameter:
6.010 - 6.030 mm
(0.2366 - 0.2374
in.)
(b)
Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the valve
stem.
Stem diameter:
Intake
5.970 -
5.985 mm
(0.2350 - 0.2356 in.)
Exhaust
5.965 -
5.980 mm
(0.2348 - 0.2354
in.)
(c)
Subtract the valve stem diameter measurement from
the valve guide bushing inside diameter measurement.
Standard stem
oil
clearance:
Intake
0.025 - 0.060 mm
(0.0010 - 0.0024 in.)
Exhaust
0.030 - 0.065 mm
(0.0012 - 0.0026 in.)
Maximum stem
oil
clearance:
Intake
0.08 mm (0.0031 in.)
Exhaust
0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
If the clearance is greater than maximum, replace the valve
and guide bushing.
