Check valve tappet (1) diameter, with a micrometer (2) and
with an inside micrometer gauge the diameter of relevant
seats on cylinder head; they must be equal to those indicated
in Figure 125. The normal fitting clearance between the
maximum diameter of valve tappet and that of seats is
0.030
÷ 0.075 mm.
The replacement of valve tappet, because of an excessive
clearance in the seats, requires to fit oversized valve tappet
after boring the seats by means of a suitable reamer.

Disassembling valves
41113
Valve dismantling is performed with tool 99360268 (1) by
exerting a pressure on cap (3) so that, pressing springs (4 and
5) it is allowed to remove lock cones (2). Then remove:
upper cap (3), springs (4 and 5) and lower cap (6).
Repeat operation on all valves.
Overturn cylinder head and remove valves (7).

Checking cam lift and journal align-
ment
Set shaft on centres and check, with a centesimal dial gauge
placed on central support, that alignment error is no greater
than 0.04 mm, otherwise replace shaft. Also check cams lift:
it should be 10.5 mm for those of outlet and 9.5 mm for
those of inlet; if different values are found replace the shaft.
18877
Extract valve tappet (1) complete with adjusting caps, placing
them in a container according to the order they were when
removed.
Lateral surface of valve tappet must be very smooth and dent
free.
Small dents can be eliminated with a very fine abrasive stone.

Using suitable pliers (1), remove the seal rings (2) from the
valve guides.
