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 seat 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 attention when installing the valve stem oil seals. For example, installing an intake side valve stem oil seal to the exhaust side or installing an exhaust side 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 |
Sufficiently apply engine oil to the tip area of the intake valve shown in the illustration.
| *1 | Compression Spring |
| *2 | Valve Spring Retainer |
| *3 | Cylinder Head |
| *a | Upper Side |
Install the intake valve, inner compression spring and valve spring retainer to the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Note
Install the compression spring with its taper side facing upward (towards the valve spring retainer).
Install the same parts in the same combination to the original locations.
Using SST, compress the inner compression spring and install the valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic 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 |
Sufficiently apply engine oil to the tip area of the exhaust valve shown in the illustration.
| *1 | Compression Spring |
| *2 | Valve Spring Retainer |
| *3 | Cylinder Head |
| *a | Upper Side |
Install the exhaust valve, inner compression spring and valve spring retainer to the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Note
Install the compression spring with its taper side facing upward (towards the valve spring retainer).
Install the same parts in the same combination to the original locations.
Using SST, compress the inner compression spring and install the valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Be careful not to damage the valve stem tip.
