Cleaning/Inspecting Cylinder Head
Cover
NOTE: If the cylinder head cover cannot be trued,
the cylinder head assembly must be replaced.
1. Wash the cylinder head cover in parts-cleaning sol-
vent.
2. Place the cylinder head cover on the Surface Plate
covered with #400 grit wet-or-dry sandpaper. Using
light pressure, move the cylinder head cover in a fig-
ure eight motion. Inspect the sealing surface for any
indication of high spots. A high spot can be noted by
a bright metallic finish. Correct any high spots
before assembly by continuing to move the cylinder
head cover in a figure eight motion until a uniform
bright metallic finish is attained.

Removing Valves
NOTE: Keep all valves and valve components as a
set. Note the original location of each valve set for use
during installation. Return each valve set to its origi-
nal location during installation.
1. Using a valve spring compressor, compress the valve
springs and remove the valve keepers. Account for
an upper spring retainer.

NOTE: The valve seals must be replaced.
3. Remove the valve springs; then invert the cylinder
head and remove the valves.
Measuring Valve Guide (Bore)
1. Insert a snap gauge 1/2 way down into each valve
guide bore; then remove the gauge and measure it
with a micrometer.
2. Acceptable inside diameter range must be within
specifications.
3. If a valve guide is out of tolerance, the cylinder head
must be replaced.
CAUTION
Do not remove an excessive amount of the sealing sur-
face or damage to the camshaft will result. Always
check camshaft clearance when resurfacing the cylin-
der head cover.
CAUTION
Water or parts-cleaning solvent must be used in con-
junction with the wet-or-dry sandpaper or damage to
the sealing surface may result.
