Valve Guide Servicing

  1. Check valve guide for wear or damage. Replace defective guides by using a drift and driving out guide through top of head. Press in new guide from top of head until correct projection of guide above head is achieved.
  2. Ream valve guide to provide correct clearance. Inspect valve seat to make sure it is true with guide. Reface valve seat if necessary.
