Valves
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.
NOTE
The reading is not actual valve/valve guide clearance
because the measuring point is above the guide.
Valve/Valve Guide Clearance (Wobble Method)
Standard:
Exhaust
0.08
0.16 mm (0.0031 0.0063 in.)
Intake
0.03
0.10 mm (0.0012 0.0039 in.)
Service Limit:
Exhaust
0.35 mm (0.013 in.)
Intake
0.30 mm (0.012 in.)
Valve Seat Inspection
Remove the valve (see Valve Removal).
Check the valve seating surface [A] between the valve [B]
and valve seat [C].
Measure the outside diameter [D] of the seating pattern
on the valve seat.
If the outside diameter is too large or too small, repair the
seat (see Seat Repair).
Valve Seating Surface Outside Diameter
Standard:
Exhaust
24.7
24.9 mm (0.972 0.980 in.)
Intake
28.9
29.1 mm (1.138 1.146 in.)
Measure the seat width [E] of the portion where there is
no build-up carbon (white portion) of the valve seat with a
vernier caliper.
Good [F]
If the width is too wide [G], too narrow [H] or uneven [J],
repair the seat (see Valve Seat Repair).
Valve Seating Surface Width
Standard:
Exhaust
0.8
1.2 mm (0.031 0.047 in.)
Intake
0.5
1.0 mm (0.020 0.039 in.)
