VALVE LAPPING
1. Apply a coarse lapping compound evenly
on the valve face. Lap the valve by tap-
ping and rotating the valve lapper

clockwise and counterclockwise.
2. Clean off all of the lapping compound
from the valve face and valve seat. Apply
fine lapping compound on the valve face
and lap the valve as in step 1.
3. If the contact width on the valve face
shines white along the entire face, apply
mechanic's blueing dye (Dykem) to make
sure that there are traces of even contact
in the center of the valve face.
CAUTION:
Do not let the lapping compound enter the
gap between the valve stem and the valve
guide.
NOTE:
After every lapping procedure, clean off the
compound from the valve face and valve seat.
