Oil Pressure Relief Valve Inspection
1. Note the condition of the ball (2) and the valve seat (1). They must not have any nicks or burrs
(Figure 13-71, Page 13-34).
2. Inspect the relief valve spring (3) for pitting, cracks, rusting and burrs. Replace it if necessary.
3. Measure free length of the spring (3) with a vernier caliper (Figure 13-72, Page 13-34). If the free
length of the relief valve spring is less than 0.748 inch (19.00 mm), replace the spring.
Oil Pressure Relief Valve Installation
1. Installation is the reverse of removal. If necessary, put the ball in position and lightly tap the ball with a
plastic hammer to form a perfect seat.
