C: Inspection
INSPECTION1. CYLINDER HEAD
1) Make sure that no crack or other damage exists. In addition to visual inspection, inspect important areas by means of red lead check.
Also make sure that gasket installing surface shows no trace of gas and water leaks.
2) Place cylinder head on ST. ST 498267200 CYLINDER HEAD TABLE
3) Measure the warping of the cylinder head surface that mates with crankcase by using a straight edge and thickness gauge.
If the warping exceeds 0.05 mm (0.0020 in), regrind the surface with a surface grinder.
Warping limit:
0.05 mm (0.0020 in)
Grinding limit:
0.1 mm (0.004 in)
Standard height Of cylinder head:
98.3 mm (3.870 in)
CAUTION: Uneven torque for the cylinder head bolts can cause warping. When reassembling, pay special attention to the torque so as to tighten evenly.
2. VALVE SEAT
Inspect intake and exhaust valve seats, and correct the contact surfaces with valve seat cutter if they are defective or when valve guides are replaced.
Valve seat width: W
Intake
Standard
0.7 mm (0.028 in)
Limit
1.4 mm (0.055 in)
Exhaust
Standard
1.4 mm (0.055 in)
Limit
1.8 mm (0.071 in)
3. VALVE GUIDE
1) Check the clearance between valve guide and stem. The clearance can be checked by measuring the outside diameter of valve stem and the inside diameter of valve guide with outside and inside micrometers respectively.
Clearance between the valve guide and valve stem:
Standard
Intake
0.035 - 0.062 mm (0.0014 - 0.0024 in)
Exhaust
0.040 - 0.067 mm (0.0016 - 0.0026 in)
Limit
0.15 mm (0.0059 in)
Valve guide inner diameter:
6.000 - 6.012 mm (0.2362 - 0.2367 in)
Valve stem outer diameters:
Intake
5.950 - 5.965 mm (0.2343 - 0.2348 in)
Exhaust
5.945 - 5.960 mm (0.2341 - 0.2346 in)
2) If the clearance between valve guide and stem exceeds the specification, replace guide as follows:
(1) Place cylinder head on ST1 with the combustion chamber upward so that valve guides enter the holes in ST1.
(2) Insert ST2 into valve guide and press it down to remove valve guide.

ST2 499767200 VALVE GUIDE REMOVER
(3) Turn cylinder head upside down and place ST as shown in the Figure. ST 499767000 VALVE GUIDE ADJUSTER
(4) Before installing new oversize valve guide, make sure that neither scratches nor damages exist on the inside surface of the valve guide holes in cylinder head.
(5) Put new valve guide, coated with sufficient oil, in cylinder, and insert ST1 into valve guide. Press in until the valve guide upper end is flush with the upper surface of ST2.

(6) Check the valve guide protrusion.
Valve guide protrusion: L
17.5 - 18.0 mm (0.689 - 0.709 in)
(7) Ream the inside of valve guide with ST. Gently rotate the reamer clockwise while pressing it lightly into valve guide, and return it also rotating clockwise. After reaming, clean valve guide to remove chips. ST 499767400 VALVE GUIDE REAMER
CAUTION:
- Apply engine oil to the reamer when reaming.
- If the inner surface of the valve guide is torn, the edge of the reamer should be slightly ground with an oil stone.
- If the inner surface of the valve guide becomes lustrous and the reamer does not chips, use a new reamer or remedy the reamer.
(8) Recheck the contact condition between valve and valve seat after replacing valve guide.
4. INTAKE AND EXHAUST VALVE
1) Inspect the flange and stem of valve, and replace if damaged, worn, or deformed, or if "H" is less than the specified limit.
H:
Intake
Standard
1.0 mm (0.039 in)
Limit
0.8 mm (0.031 in)
Exhaust
Standard
1.2 mm (0.047 in)
Limit
0.8 mm (0.031 in)
Valve overall length:
Intake
101.0 mm (3.976 in)
Exhaust
101.2 mm (3.984 in)
2) Put a small amount of grinding compound on the seat surface and lap the valve and seat surface. Also refer to VALVE SEAT at this time. Install a new intake valve oil seal after lapping.
5. VALVE SPRINGS
1) Check valve springs for damage, free length, and tension. Replace valve spring if it is not to the specifications presented below.
2) To measure the squareness of the valve spring, stand the spring on a surface plate and measure its deflection at the top using a try square.
6. INTAKE AND EXHAUST VALVE OIL SEAL
Replace oil seal with new one, if lip is damaged or spring out of place, or when the surfaces of intake valve and valve seat are reconditioned or intake valve guide is replaced.
1) Place cylinder head on 511.
2) Press-fit oil seal to the specified dimension indicated in the Figure by using ST2.

ST2 498857100 VALVE OIL SEAL GUIDE
CAUTION:
- Apply engine oil to oil seal before press-fitting.
- When press-fitting oil seal, do not use hammer or strike in.
- Differentiate between intake valve oil seal and exhaust valve oil seal by noting their difference in color.
Color of rubber part:
Intake (Black)
Exhaust (Brown)
Color of spring part:
Intake (White)
Exhaust (White)
