Valve Guides

  1. Check valve stem clearance. If clearance exceeds specification, replace with oversize valve guide. Use Valve Guide Remover (09916-46010) to drive old guide out.
  2. Ream guide bore in cylinder head with 12 mm Reamer (09916-37310) for SOHC engines and 11 mm Reamer (09916-38210) for DOHC engines. Heat cylinder head to 176-212°F (80-100°C).
  3. Install new oversize guide in head. Valve guide protrusion is .55" (14.0 mm) for SOHC engines and .91" (23.1 mm) for DOHC engines.
  4. Using Valve Guide Installer (09917-88210) for SOHC engines or (09916-56020) for DOHC engines, drive in new valve guide until valve guide installer contacts cylinder head.
  5. Ream valve guide with Reamer (09916-34520). Clean valve guide bore after reaming. Install valve and ensure clearance is correct.
