Valve Body: Inspection

NOTE: Valves may be held in with pins or retainers and plugs. Remove components and note locations. Arrange parts in order for reassembly reference.
  1. Individually remove valves. Clean all parts with solvent. Dry parts with compressed air. Ensure all valve body oil passages are clear. Inspect valves for scoring or roughness. Inspect valve springs for damage, squareness, rust and collapsed coils. Measure spring free length and outer diameter.
  2. Replace spring if not within specification. See VALVE BODY SPRING SPECIFICATIONS  table. Ensure valve body springs correspond with appropriate valve. Ensure retainers are installed in appropriate locations.
