      If the overall length is less than the minimum, replace the exhaust valve.

  5. INSPECT INTAKE VALVE SEAT 
    1. Apply a light coat of Prussian blue to the valve face.
    2. Lightly press the valve face against the valve seat.
    3. Check the valve face and valve spring seat by using the following procedure:

      *a Width
      1. If Prussian blue appears around the entire valve face, the valve face is circular. If not, replace the valve.
      2. If Prussian blue appears around the entire valve seat, the guide and valve face are concentric. If not, resurface the valve spring seat.
      3. Check that the valve spring seat contacts the middle of the valve face with the width between 1.1 to 1.5 mm (0.0433 to 0.0591 in.).
  6. INSPECT EXHAUST VALVE SEAT 
    1. Apply a light coat of Prussian blue to the valve face.
    2. Lightly press the valve face against the valve spring seat.
    3. Check the valve face and valve spring seat by using the following procedure:
      GTY825209Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
      *a Width
      1. If Prussian blue appears around the entire valve face, the valve face is circular. If not, replace the valve.
      2. If Prussian blue appears around the entire valve seat, the guide and valve face are concentric. If not, resurface the valve spring seat.
      3. Check that the valve spring seat contacts the middle of the valve face with the width between 1.3 to 1.7 mm (0.0512 to 0.0669 in.).
  7. INSPECT INNER COMPRESSION SPRING

  9. INSPECT CAMSHAFT THRUST CLEARANCE 
    1. Inspect the bank 1 camshaft thrust clearance.
      1. Install the bank 1 camshafts (Refer to INSTALLATION [10/2017 - ] ).
      2. Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance while moving the camshaft back and forth.

        0.08 to 0.13 mm (0.00315 to 0.00512 in.)

        Maximum thrust clearance

        0.15 mm (0.00591 in.)

        If the thrust clearance is more than the maximum, replace the camshaft housing sub-assembly. If the thrust surface is damaged, replace the camshaft.

    2. Inspect the bank 2 camshaft thrust clearance.
      1. Install the bank 2 camshafts (Refer to INSTALLATION [10/2017 - ] ).
      2. Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance while moving the camshaft back and forth.
