1. Inspect for flatness.

Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the surface the contacting the cylinder block
and the manifolds for warpage.

Flatness of cylinder head gasket surface

Standard: Less than 0.05 mm (0.002 in.) [Less than 0.02 mm (0.0008 in.)/150x150]

Flatness of manifold gasket surface

Standard: Less than 0.03 mm (0.001 in.)/110x110

2. Inspect for cracks.

Check the combustion chamber, intake ports, exhaust ports and cylinder block surface for cracks. If
cracked, replace the cylinder head.

VALVE AND VALVE SPRING

1. Inspect valve stems and valve guides.

1. Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter of the valve guide.

2. Inspect valves.

1. Check the valve is ground to the correct valve face angle.

2. Check that the surface of the valve for wear. If the valve face is worn, replace the valve.

3. Check the valve head margin thickness.

If the margin thickness is less than minimum, replace the valve.
