CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Tech Tips
Perform "Inspection After Repairs" after replacing the cylinder head sub-assembly.
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 | Intake Manifold Side | *b | Exhaust Manifold Side |
| *c | 24 mm (0.945 in.) | *d | 13 mm (0.512 in.) |
| *e | 45 mm (1.772 in.) | *f | 20 mm (0.787 in.) |
| *g | 35 mm (1.378 in.) | - | - |
INSTALL NO. 2 STRAIGHT SCREW PLUG
Note
If coolant leaks from the No. 2 straight screw plug or the plug is corroded, replace it.
Using a 10 mm hexagon wrench, install 3 new gaskets and the 3 No. 2 straight screw plugs.
INSTALL VALVE SPRING SEAT
Install the valve spring seats to the cylinder head sub-assembly.
INSTALL VALVE STEM OIL SEAL
| *a | Intake Side |
| *b | Exhaust Side |
| *c | Gray |
| *d | Black |
Apply a light coat of engine oil to new valve stem oil seals.
Note
Pay close attention when installing the intake and exhaust valve oil seals. For example, 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 side valve stem oil seal is gray and the exhaust side valve stem oil seal is black.
| *a | CORRECT |
| *b | INCORRECT |
Using SST, push in the valve stem oil seals.
Note
Failure to use SST will cause the valve stem oil seal to be damaged or improperly seated.
INSTALL INTAKE VALVE
| *a | 30 mm (1.18 in.) or more |
Apply plenty of engine oil to the tip area of the intake valve shown in the illustration.
| *a | Narrow |
| *b | Wide |
Install the intake valve, compression spring and valve spring retainer to the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Note
Install the same parts in the same combination to their original locations.
Using SST and wooden blocks, compress the compression spring and install the valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic-faced hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Be careful not to damage the valve stem tip.
Be careful not to damage the valve spring retainer.
INSTALL EXHAUST VALVE
| *a | 30 mm (1.18 in.) or more |
Apply plenty of engine oil to the tip area of the exhaust valve shown in the illustration.
| *a | Narrow |
| *b | Wide |
Install the exhaust valve, compression spring and valve spring retainer to the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Note
Install the same parts in the same combination to their original locations.
Using SST and wooden blocks, compress the compression spring and install the valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic-faced hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Be careful not to damage the valve stem tip.
Be careful not to damage the valve spring retainer.
