- Place a small amount of fine valve grinding paste evenly around the contact face of the valve.
- Place the valve in position and, using a suitable valve grinding tool, rotate the valve back and forth a few degrees on its seat, using light pressure.
- Raise the valve frequently during lapping and turn it into a new position after a few laps or rotations.
- Lap only until a continuous but narrow lapping mark is visible on both the valve seat and valve face.
- Thoroughly clean all surfaces to remove traces of valve grinding paste from the cylinder head, valve seat and valve face.
- Repeat steps 4 to 7 for the remaining valves.
