One can replace the valve guides (see paragraph 2). If a thread is damaged (except sparking plug holes) it is possible to replace it by a
“Heli-Coil” thread (see note MR-4279).

7 Characteristics of the valve springs.
Outer springs: L = 37 mm under load of 24.200±1.350 kg and L = 28.5 mm under load of 52 ± 2.800 kg.
Inner springs L = 24.5 mm under load of 5.250 ± 0.300 kg and L = 16 mm under load of 11 ± 0.600 kg.
