(6) INTAKE AND EXHAUST VALVES

Take the following points into account when

mounting the intake and exhaust valves on the

cylinder head.

NOTE 1: Replace the valve with a new one if it shows

signs of wear. (Refer to the “STANDARD

REPAIR TABLES” on page 78 and 79.)

NOTE 2: Carefully scrape off any carbon deposits

on the combustion chamber. Apply oil to

the valve stems before mounting the intake

and exhaust valves. Insert the valves in the

cylinder head and place it on a level

workbench. Next, mount the valve springs,

the spring retainers and collet valves.

(Mount the stem seal on the intake valve

guide.)
