Valve Guide Replacement

REPLACEMENT

VALVE GUIDE





1. Using the SST (09221-3F100A), withdraw the old valve guide toward the bottom of cylinder head.
2. Recondition the valve guide hole so that it can match the newly press-fitted oversize valve guide.








3. Using the SST (09221-3F100A/B), press-fit the valve guide. The valve guide must be press-fitted from the upper side of the cylinder head. Keep in mind that the intake and exhaust valve guides are different in length.
4. After the valve guide is press-fitted, insert a new valve and check for prop, stem-to-guide clearance.
5. After the valve guide is replaced, check that the valve is seated properly. Recondition the valve seats as necessary.
