Valve guide inside diameter
Standard: IN & EX 5.500 – 5.512 mm (0.2165 – 0.2170 in)
If unable to measure valve guide inside diameter, measure the
“Valve stem deflection”.
Valve stem deflection
Measure valve stem deflection as follows:

2. Position the valve head at approx. 10 mm away from valve
seat.
3. Move valve head in the direction “X – Y”, and measure
deflection.
09900-20602: Dial gauge
09900-20701: Magnetic stand
Service limit: IN & EX 0.16 mm (0.006 in)
If measurement exceeds service limit, replace valve.
If measurement still exceeds service limit with new valve,
replace valve guide.
NOTE:
For valve guide replacement, see “VALVE GUIDE REPLACE-
