Valve Guide Installation
•
Apply oil to the valve guide outer surface before installa-
tion.
•
Heat the area around the valve guide hole to about 120 ∼
150°C (248 ∼ 302°F).
CAUTION
Do not heat the cylinder head with a torch. This Will
warp the cylinder head. Soak the cylinder head and
heat the oil.
•
Using the valve guide driver [A] and washer [B], press
and insert the valve guide in until the valve guide driver
surface [C] touches the head surface [D].

Valve-to-Guide Clearance Measurement (Wobble
Method)
If a small bore gauge is not available, inspect the valve
guide wear by measuring the valve to valve guide clearance
with the wobble method as indicated below.
•
Insert a new valve [A] into the guide [B] and set a dial
gauge against the stem perpendicular to it as close as
possible to the cylinder head mating surface.
•
Move the stem back and forth [C] to measure valve/valve
guide clearance.
•
Repeat the measurement in a direction at a right angle to
the first.
If the reading exceeds the service limit, replace the guide.
