CYLINDER HEAD/VALVES
Measure and record each valve guide I.D.
Subtract each valve stem O.D. from the corresponding
guide I.D. to obtain the stem-to-guide clearance.
If the stem-to-guide clearance is out of standard,
determine if a new guide with standard dimensions
would bring the clearance within tolerance. If so,
replace any guides as necessary and ream to fit.
If the stem-to-guide clearance exceeds the service limit
with the new guides, replace the valves and guides.
VALVE GUIDE REPLACEMENT
Chill the replacement valve guides in the freezer
section of a refrigerator for about an hour.

Support the cylinder head and drive out the valve
guides from combustion chamber side of the cylinder
head.
