10. Measure the valve stem-to-guide clearance.<br />

Excessive valve stem-to-guide clearance may cause an<br />

excessive oil consumption and may also cause a valve to<br />

break. Insufficient clearance will result in noisy and sticky<br />

functioning of the valve and will disturb the engine assembly<br />

smoothness.<br />

10.1. Clamp the J 8001 on the exhaust port side of the<br />

cylinder head.<br />

10.2. Position the dial indicator so that the movement of the<br />

valve stem from side to side (crosswise to the<br />

cylinder head) will cause a direct movement of the<br />

dial indicator stem.<br />

The dial indicator stem must contract the side of the<br />

valve stem just above the valve guide.<br />

10.3. Drop the valve head about 1.6 mm (0.063 in) off the<br />

valve seat.<br />

10.4. Use light pressure and move the valve stem from<br />

side to side in order to obtain a valve stem-to-guide<br />

clearance reading. Refer to <strong>Engine</strong> Mechanical<br />
