Installing the valves
The inlet and exhaust valves are distinguished by the
mark (30) on the valve head and the head diameter.
Factory installed inlet and exhaust valves are different. If
a used valve is being installed, check whether it is an inlet
or an exhaust valve. Only the exhaust valve is available as
a replacement part – it can be used as either an inlet or
exhaust valve.
