CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
There are two cylinder head assembly shapes. Valve spring type A can only be used with cylinder head type A and valve spring type B can only be used with cylinder head type B. The combination cannot be changed.
Tech Tips
The standard protrusion amount (A) of the valve guide bush determines whether the cylinder head is type A or B.
| Type | Specified Condition |
|---|---|
| Cylinder Head Type A | 14.3 to 14.7 mm (0.563 to 0.579 in.) |
| Cylinder Head Type B | 15.8 to 16.2 mm (0.622 to 0.638 in.) |
| *A | Valve Spring Type A |
| *B | Valve Spring Type B |
| *1 | No. 1 Valve Rocker Arm Sub-assembly |
| *2 | Valve Spring Retainer |
| *3 | Inner Compression Spring |
| *a | Valve Spring Retainer Outer Diameter |
| *b | No. 1 Valve Rocker Arm Roller Width |
The shape of the inner compression spring determines whether the valve spring type is A or B.
The No. 1 valve rocker arm, inner compression spring and valve spring retainer have two different shapes and are not interchangeable.
| Valve Spring Type | No. 1 Valve Rocker Arm Roller Width | Valve Spring Retainer Outer Diameter | Inner Compression Spring Shape |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | 10.7 mm (0.421 in.) | 23.4 mm (0.921 in.) | Straight |
| B | 8.0 mm (0.315 in.) | 18.9 mm (0.744 in.) | Taper |
PROCEDURE
INSTALL STUD BOLT
Note
If a stud bolt is deformed or its threads are damaged, replace it.
Using E7 and E8 "TORX" socket wrenches, install the stud bolts.
| *a | for Intake Side of Bank 2 | *b | for Intake Side of Bank 1 |
| *c | for Exhaust Side of Bank 2 | *d | for Exhaust Side of Bank 1 |
| *e | for Front Side of Bank 2 | *f | for Front Side of Bank 1 |
INSTALL NO. 2 STRAIGHT SCREW PLUG
Using a 14 mm hexagon wrench, install 2 new gaskets and the 2 No. 2 straight screw plugs.
INSTALL NO. 1 STRAIGHT SCREW PLUG
Using a 10 mm hexagon wrench, install 6 new gaskets and the 6 No. 1 straight screw plugs.
INSTALL VALVE SPRING SEAT
Install the valve spring seats to the cylinder head.
INSTALL VALVE STEM OIL SEAL
| *A | for Intake Side |
| *B | for Exhaust Side |
| *1 | Brown |
| *2 | Gray |
Apply a light coat of engine oil to 2 new valve stem oil seals.
Note
Pay attention when installing the intake and exhaust valve stem oil seals. Installing the intake valve stem oil seal to the exhaust side or installing the exhaust valve stem oil seal to the intake side can cause installation problems later.
Tech Tips
The intake valve oil seals are brown and the exhaust valve oil seals are gray.
| *a | CORRECT |
| *b | INCORRECT |
Using SST, push in the valve stem oil seals.
Note
Failure to use SST will cause the seal to be damaged or improperly seated.
INSTALL INTAKE VALVE
Tech Tips
The shape of the inner compression spring determines whether the valve spring type described here is A or B.
| *a | 40 mm (1.57 in.) or more |
Apply a sufficient coat of engine oil to the tip area of the intake valve as shown in the illustration.
| *A | Valve Spring Type B |
| *a | Narrow |
| *b | Wide |
Install the intake valve, compression spring and valve spring retainer to the cylinder head.
Note
Install the same parts in the same combination to their original locations.
Valve Spring Type B:
Install the inner compression spring to the wide end of the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Valve Spring Type A:
Using SST, compress the compression spring and install the 2 valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic-faced hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Do not damage the valve stem tip.
Be careful not to damage the retainer.
Valve Spring Type B:
Using SST, compress the compression spring and install the 2 valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic-faced hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Do not damage the valve stem tip.
Be careful not to damage the retainer.
INSTALL EXHAUST VALVE
Tech Tips
The shape of the inner compression spring determines whether the valve spring type described here is A or B.
| *a | 40 mm (1.57 in.) or more |
Apply a sufficient coat of engine oil to the tip area of the exhaust valve as shown in the illustration.
| *A | Valve Spring Type B |
| *a | Narrow |
| *b | Wide |
Install the exhaust valve, compression spring and valve spring retainer to the cylinder head.
Note
Install the same parts in the same combination to their original locations.
Valve Spring Type B:
Install the inner compression spring to the wide end of the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Valve Spring Type A:
Using SST, compress the compression spring and install the 2 valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic-faced hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Do not damage the valve stem tip.
Be careful not to damage the retainer.
Valve Spring Type B:
Using SST, compress the compression spring and install the 2 valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic-faced hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Do not damage the valve stem tip.
Be careful not to damage the retainer.
