Replacing Valve Guide

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. Using the special tool (09221-3F000 A/B), withdraw the old valve guide out the bottom of the cylinder head.
  2. Recondition the valve guide hole so that it can receive the newly press-fitted oversize valve guide.

  3. Using the special tool (09221-3F000 A/B) press-fit the valve guide. The valve guide must be press-fitted from the upper side of the cylinder head. Keep in mind that the intake and exhaust valve guides are different in length.
  4. After the valve guide is press-fitted, insert a new valve and check for proper clearance.
  5. After the valve guide is replaced, check that the valve is fully seated. Recondition the valve seats as necessary.
NOTE: Do not install a valve guide unless it is oversize.
