CYLINDER HEAD — Inspection (Cont'd): Valve Guide Clearance & Valve Guide Replacement

EM-21prose procedure

Inspection (Cont'd)

Valve Guide Clearance

  1. 1
    Measure valve deflection in a parallel direction with rocker arm. (Valve and valve guide mostly wear in this direction.)
    Valve deflection limit (Dial gauge reading): 0.2 mm (0.008 in)
    Dial gauge measuring valve deflection in parallel direction with rocker arm, approximately 25 mm (0.98 in) from valve tip
    SEM536B
  2. 2
    If it exceeds the limit, check valve to valve guide clearance.
  3. a. Measure valve stem diameter and valve guide inner diameter.

    SEM537B
  4. b. Check that clearance is within specification. Valve to valve guide clearance limit: 0.1 mm (0.004 in)
  5. c. If it exceeds the limit, replace valve or valve guide.

Valve Guide Replacement

  1. 1
    To remove valve guide, heat cylinder head to 150 to 160°C (302 to 320°F).

  2. 2
    Drive out valve guide with a press [under a 20 kN (2 t, 2.2 US ton, 2.0 Imp ton) pressure] or hammer and suitable tool.

  3. 3
    Ream cylinder head valve guide hole.
    Valve guide hole diameter (for service parts): Intake and Exhaust — 10.175 - 10.196 mm (0.4006 - 0.4014 in)
