Cylinder Head: Assembly

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Apply clean engine oil to the valve seals and the inside diameter of the valve guides prior to assembling the cylinder head components.

NOTE: The valve seal must be bottomed out on the cylinder head spring seat.

Install the valve seal.
Install the valve into the cylinder head.
Using the Valve Spring Compressors, install the spring, retainer and keys.
Repeat the previous steps for each of the remaining valves.
