INFORMATION ABOUT OVERHAULING
8.6.5 Valve guides replacement
The intake and exhaust guides are both made out of grey
iron with pearlitic phosphoric matrix and they have the same
dimensions:
The guides are press-t assembled; assembly is possible by
cooling the guides with the aid of liquid nitrogen.
Before assembling a new guide, measure value L and M,
calculate the press-t value, which must observe the values
in Tab. 8.11.
Observe values G from surface F when assembling guides H
(Tab. 8.10 - Fig. 8.23).
Important
• The guides must be worked for value E (Tab. 8.10 - Fig.
8.23) after driving. Contact a rectification workshop for such
operations.

8.6.6 Rocker arm check
Measure values W1 in correspondence with holes M located
on rocker arm gudgeon L (seen from B in Fig. 8.25).
Measure values W2 (Fig. 8.27).
Based on the values measured, calculate the clearance
between W1 a n d W2, which is to observe the values in Ta b . 8 .1 2 .
Check that all oil pipes N and M are free from impurities or
obstructions.
