Valve and Valve Guide Inspection

Cylinder Head Inspection

Valve Spring Inspection
1) Before installing valve guide into cylinder head, ream guide hole with special tool (10.5 mm reamer) so as to remove burrs and make it truly round.

NOTE:
The engine could be damaged if shavings remain inside the valve guide hole after reaming it.

Special Tool

(A): 09916-58210

(B): 09916-56510

NOTE:
- Never reuse valve guide.
Install new oversized valve guide.
- Intake and exhaust valve guides are identical.

a) Heat cylinder head uniformly to a temperature of 80 to 100 °C (176 to 212 °F) so that it will not be distorted, and drive new valve guide into guide hole with special tools.
b) Drive in new valve guide until special tool contacts cylinder head.
After installation, make sure that valve guide protrudes by specified dimension "a" from cylinder head.

NOTE:
For installing intake valve guide and exhaust valve guide, the same special tool (B) is used, but its application direction is different. Use it in proper direction.
- For intake valve guide
The side (2) should be directed to valve guide.
- For exhaust valve guide
The side (1) should be directed to valve guide.






Valve guide protrusion "a"
IN: 16.3 - 16.7 mm (0.642 - 0.657 in.)
EX: 12.3 - 12.7 mm (0.485 - 0.500 in.)





3) Ream valve guide bore with special tool.

NOTE:
The engine could be damaged if shavings remain inside the valve guide hole after reaming it.

Be sure to thoroughly remove shavings from the reamed hole.

Special Tool

(A): 09916-34550

4) Install valve spring seat to cylinder head.
5) Install new valve stem seal (1) to valve guide.

After applying engine oil to valve stem seal and spindle of special tool (A), fit valve stem seal to spindle, and then install valve stem seal to valve guide pushing special tool by hand.

After installation, check that valve stem seal is properly fixed to valve guide.

NOTE:
If the valve stem seal is installed by striking the special tool with a hammer or other similar tool, the valve stem seal may be damaged, causing oil to get down past the seal.

Be sure to push the special tool only by hand to force the valve stem seal into position.
