Valve Seat (8-Valve SOHC)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1992 Suzuki Swift, 1992 Suzuki Sidekick, and 1992 Suzuki Samurai. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Inspect valve seats for damage or wear. If exhaust valve seat rework is necessary, use 3 cutters to obtain required angles. The first cut should be 15 degrees. Second cut should be 75 degrees for Samurai and Swift or 60 degrees for Sidekick. Third cut should be 45 degrees to obtain correct seat angle.
  2. For intake valves, procedure is the same, except second cut should be 60 degrees for all models. After cutting valve seats to correct angles, lap valve seat in 2 steps. Use course compound for first step and fine compound for second step.
