To  refit 

The valve stems should be given a thin coating of oil 
when the  valves  are refitted. 

The valve spring cups have a sealing ring In the lower 

end.  See  Fig.  21.  When  refitting  care  should  be 
taken to avoid damage to the sealing ring as damaged 
rings  can  cause  oiling  up  of  the  sparking  plugs. 

The  sealing rings  should  be  renewed  If faulty. 

EXAMINATION  OF  VALVES,  SPRINGS 
AND  GUIDES,  ETC. 

Valves.  Examine for pits on the face,  burning and 
distortion or  cracks In the heads.  Burnt or cracked 
valves must always be scrapped.  See also "VALVES 

-REFACING". 

Examine  the  seatings  In  the  cylinder  head,  and  If 
defective  they  should  be  treated  as  subsequently 
described.  lf the  valve  stems  are  appreciably  worn 
the valves must be  scrapped. 

Wear  of  valve  stems  may  be  checked  by  means  of 
a micrometer, and the stem should be checked from 
various  angles  and positions,  as  the  stems  of  valves 

do  not  wear  evenly.  The  stem  diameter  of  new 
valves Is given  In the  Data Section. 
On  the  1592 c.c.  engine  both  valve  stems  have 
a  ·001' (·025 mm.) taper along the ground length of 
the valve stem.  The smaller diameter Is at the valve 
head end which Is  ·001'  (·025 mm.) less In diameter 
than  the valve cap  end  diameter. 

Guides.  These may  be  checked for  wear by using 
a new valve as a gauge.  The valve stem should be a 
free  sliding  fit  In  the  guide  without  excessive  side 

play. 
In  making  the  foregoing  tests both valve stem and 
valve guide must  b� free from carbon  or  burrs and 

free  from  oil. 

WSM.124 

Section  B  (Engine) 

Springs.  If possible the load required to compress 
the  valve  springs  to  their  fitted  heights  should  be 
checked.  The required load and length to compress 
the  springs  Is  given  In  the  Data  Section  under 

"Valves".  The use of a dial type valve spring tester 

Is strongly recommended. 

If  a  spring  test  Is  not  available  a  simple  rig  as 
Illustrated  In  Fig.  22  can  be  made  and  used.  An 
alternative  method  Is  to  check  the  used  valve

springs  by  comparing  them  with  new  springs.  See 
Fig.  23.  Place  them  end  to  end  on  a  long  bolt  and 

compress them  In  a hand press.  Any  loss will then 

be  apparent  as  the  weaker  spring  will  close  up 
first. If either spring of a pair Is weak both  Inner and 
outer  should  be  replaced  as  a  pair  even  though 
the outer  spring  In the  original pair  may  appear to 
be satisfactory when compared with a new spring as
