Valves with excessive damage must be replaced.

Minor imperfections of the valve or valve seat may be repaired.

7. Reconditioning of the valves and valve seats:

The valves must seat perfectly for the engine to deliver optimum power and
performance.

Cooling the valve heads is another important factor. Good contact between each valve
and valve seat in the cylinder head is necessary to insure that the heat in the valve head
is properly carried away.

Regardless of what type of equipment is used, it is essential that the valve guide bores
are free from carbon or dirt in order to ensure the proper centering of the pilot in the
valve guide.

The valve seats should be concentric to within 0.05 mm (0.002 in) total indicator
reading.

Reface pitted valves on a valve refacing machine in order to ensure the correct
relationship between the valve head and the valve stem.

Replace the valve if the valve stem is excessively worn or warped.

Replace the valve if the edge margin (4) of the valve head is less than 0.79 mm (0.031
in) thick after grinding.

Several different types of equipment are available for reconditioning valves and valve
seats. Follow the equipment manufacturer's recommendations for equipment use to
attain the proper results.
