Valve Guide Servicing

  1. With head disassembled, insert new valve and check for wear with dial indicator. See Figure. If wear exceeds 0.039" (1.0 mm) for intake, or 0.051" (1.3 mm) for exhaust valve, guides should be replaced.
  2. Press worn guides out of head from combustion chamber side with suitable tool (10-206). Coat new guides with oil and press into cold head from camshaft side. Press guides in as far as they will go, but DO NOT use more than 1 ton pressure once shoulder is seated. Ream guide by hand to proper size.
