Removing valves
Remove rocker arm assembly and cylinder head
(Chapter 2010 Reg G).
Note:
Valve springs and spring plates can be
replaced without removing the cylinder head.
This requires the appropriate piston to be at
TDC.
The use of a valve fitting tool is necessary.
● Place fitting lever to cylinder head.
● Turn screw (1) until the lever (2) is slightly
raised.

for the above operations.

collets.

● Remove upper spring plate (2), valve spring (3)
and washer (4).

Refitting valves
Lubricate valve stems and insert into valve guides.
Note:
Minor valve seating damage can be removed
by reseating using a valve grinding paste.
When fitting new valves these must be
reseated so that uniform seating is attained, if
necessary machine the valve seat insert.
