Inspection

1. Remove carbon and varnish deposits from inside of valve guides with a reliable guide cleaner.








2. Using a small hole gauge and a micrometer, measure valve guides in 3 places top, middle and bottom. Refer to specifications. Replace guides if they are not within specification.





3. Check valve guide height.
