Maximum permissible reworking dimension, calculating: 

z

Insert valve and press firmly against seat.  

z

Measure distance -a- between end of valve stem and upper edge of cylinder head.  

z

Calculate maximum permissible reworking dimension from measured distance -a- and minimum 
dimension. 

NOTE:

z

When repairing engines with leaking valves, it is not always sufficient to 
merely reface or replace valve seats and valves. It is also necessary to 
check the valve guides for wear. This is particularly important on high 
mileage engines.  

z

The valve seats should only be reworked enough to produce a perfect 
seating pattern. The maximum permissible reworking dimension must be 
calculated before reworking starts. If this dimension is exceeded, the 
hydraulic lifter function can no longer be guaranteed and the cylinder head 
should be replaced.  

NOTE:

If the valve will be replaced as part of a repair, use the new valve for the 
calculation.

Minimum dimension: 

Intake valve 35.8 mm 

Exhaust valve 36.1 mm 

Measured distance minus minimum dimension = Maximum permissible reworking dimension.
