PROCEDURE
INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD SUB-ASSEMBLY
Using a precision straightedge and feeler gauge, measure the warpage of the contact surface of the cylinder block sub-assembly and manifolds.
| *a | Cylinder Head Lower Side |
| *b | Intake Side |
| *c | Exhaust Side |
| Standard Warpage | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
| Maximum Warpage | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
If the warpage is greater than the maximum, replace the cylinder head sub-assembly.
INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD FOR CRACKS
Using a dye penetrant, check the intake ports, exhaust ports and cylinder surface for cracks.
If cracked, replace the cylinder head sub-assembly.
INSPECT INTAKE VALVE
Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the valve stem.
| Valve stem diameter |
|---|
| 5.470 to 5.485 mm (0.2154 to 0.2159 in.) |
If the valve stem is not as specified, check the oil clearance.
| *a | Margin thickness |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the valve head margin thickness.
| Standard margin thickness |
|---|
| 1.0 mm (0.0394 in.) |
| Minimum margin thickness |
|---|
| 0.5 mm (0.0197 in.) |
If the margin thickness is less than the minimum, replace the intake valve.
| *a | Overall Length |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the valve overall length.
| Standard overall length |
|---|
| 105.85 mm (4.1673 in.) |
| Minimum overall length |
|---|
| 105.35 mm (4.1476 in.) |
If the overall length is less than the minimum, replace the intake valve.
INSPECT EXHAUST VALVE
Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the valve stem.
| Valve stem diameter |
|---|
| 5.465 to 5.480 mm (0.2152 to 0.2157 in.) |
If the valve stem is not as specified, check the oil clearance.
| *a | Margin thickness |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the valve head margin thickness.
| Standard margin thickness |
|---|
| 1.0 mm (0.0394 in.) |
| Minimum margin thickness |
|---|
| 0.5 mm (0.0197 in.) |
If the margin thickness is less than the minimum, replace the exhaust valve.
| *a | Overall Length |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the valve overall length.
| Standard overall length |
|---|
| 110.40 mm (4.3464 in.) |
| Minimum overall length |
|---|
| 109.90 mm (4.3268 in.) |
If the overall length is less than the minimum, replace the exhaust valve.
INSPECT INTAKE VALVE SEAT
Apply a light coat of Prussian blue to the valve face.
Lightly press the valve face against the intake valve seat.
| *a | Width |
Check the valve face and intake valve seat by using the following procedure:
If Prussian blue appears around the entire valve face, the valve face is concentric. If not, replace the intake valve.
If Prussian blue appears around the entire intake valve seat, the intake valve seat and valve face are concentric. If not, resurface the intake valve seat.
Check that the intake valve seat contacts the middle of the valve face with the width between 1.1 and 1.5 mm (0.0433 and 0.0591 in.).
INSPECT EXHAUST VALVE SEAT
Apply a light coat of Prussian blue to the valve face.
Lightly press the valve face against the exhaust valve seat.
| *a | Width |
Check the valve face and exhaust valve seat by using the following procedure:
If Prussian blue appears around the entire valve face, the valve face is concentric. If not, replace the exhaust valve.
If Prussian blue appears around the entire exhaust valve seat, the exhaust valve seat and valve face are concentric. If not, resurface the exhaust valve seat.
Check that the exhaust valve seat contacts the middle of the valve face with the width between 1.1 and 1.5 mm (0.0433 and 0.0591 in.).
INSPECT INNER COMPRESSION SPRING
Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the inner compression spring.
| Free length |
|---|
| 50.55 mm (1.9902 in.) |
If the free length is not as specified, replace the inner compression spring.
| *a | Deviation |
Using a steel square, measure the deviation of the inner compression spring.
| Maximum deviation |
|---|
| 1.75 mm (0.0689 in.) |
| Maximum angle (reference) |
|---|
| 2° |
If the deviation is greater than the maximum, replace the inner compression spring.
INSPECT VALVE GUIDE BUSH OIL CLEARANCE
Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter of the valve guide bush.
| Bush inside diameter |
|---|
| 5.510 to 5.530 mm (0.2169 to 0.2177 in.) |
Subtract the valve stem diameter measurement from the valve guide bush inside diameter measurement.
| Standard Oil Clearance | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
| Maximum Oil Clearance | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the valve and valve guide bush.
