Free Length and Tilt of Valve Spring
1. Measure the free length
(B)
of valve spring with vernier calipers.
If the measurement is less than the allowable limit, replace it.
2. Put the spring on a surface plate, place a square on the side of
the spring.
3. Check to see if the entire side is in contact with the square.
Rotate the valve spring and measure the maximum tilt

Oil Clearance between Rocker Arm and Rocker Arm Shaft
1. Measure the rocker arm shaft O.D. with an outside micrometer.
2. Measure the rocker arm I.D. with an inside micrometer, and then
calculate the oil clearance.
3. If the oil clearance exceeds the allowable limit, replace the rocker
arm and measure the oil clearance again. If it still exceeds the
allowable limit, replace also the rocker arm shaft.
