ME(w/o STI)-73 Cylinder Head MECHANICAL (4) Set the ST2 on valve spring. ST2 499718000 VALVE SPRING REMOVER (5) Compress the valve spring and fit the valve spring retainer key. (6) After installing, tap the valve spring retainers lightly with a plastic hammer for better seating. 2) Apply oil to the surface of valve lifter. 3) Install the valve lifter. E: INSPECTION 1. CYLINDER HEAD 1) Check for cracks or damage. Use liquid pene- trant tester on the important sections to check for fissures. Check that there are no marks of gas leak- ing or water leaking on gasket installing surface. 2) Measure the warping of the cylinder head sur- face that mates with cylinder block using a straight edge (A) and thickness gauge (B). If the warping exceeds the limit, correct the surface by grinding it with a surface grinder. 0.035 mm (0.0014 in) Grinding limit: 0.3 mm (0.012 in) Standard height of cylinder head: 127.5 mm (5.02 in) NOTE: Uneven torque for the cylinder head bolts can cause warpage. When reinstalling, pay special at- tention to the torque so as to tighten evenly. 2. VALVE SEAT Inspect the intake and exhaust valve seats, and correct the contact surfaces with a valve seat cutter if they are defective or when valve guides are re- placed. seat: Intake 0.6 — 1.4 mm (0.024 — 0.055 in) Exhaust 1.2 — 1.8 mm (0.047 — 0.071 in) 3. VALVE GUIDE 1) Check the clearance between valve guide and valve stem. The clearance can be checked by mea- suring respectively the outer diameter of valve stem with a micrometer and the inner diameter of valve guide with a caliper gauge. stem: Intake 0.030 — 0.057 mm (0.0012 — 0.0022 in) Exhaust 0.040 — 0.067 mm (0.0016 — 0.0026 in) ME-05003 ST1 ST2 ME-00126 (A) (B) ME-04721 W ME-00287 |
