VALVE SEATS
•
Check valve seat height with respect to cylinder
head mating surface.
•
Replace valve seat inserts if they are worn out
beyond specified limit.
•
Cut exhaust and inlet valve seats with a 45° cutter.
NOTE
Valve seat must be absolutely faultless and without
any chatter marks.
•
If necessary lap valve seats to a smooth and even
finish by using suitable hand pump grinder or a
lapping paste and valve itself.
•
Smear valve seat with carbon blue. Install valve in
guide and turn it slowly under axial pressure.
•
Distance between narrow diameter of valve face to
contact line should be minimum.
•
Check for leakages through valve seat by pouring
gasoline on valve head. Gasoline must not seep
past valve seat.
Valve Seat Inserts
•
For removing valve seat inserts from cylinder head
use a suitable boring machine. Bore old insert thin
(about 0.5 mm thickness) and then pry it out.
•
Alternatively use a suitable turning tool to cut
an annular groove into valve seat insert and then
pull it out with a suitable puller. In order to avoid
damaging machined cylinder head mating surface
with crank case, place any soft protective
sheetmetal under supports ofpuller.
•
Measure valve seat insert bore in cylinder head.
•
If boring and prying is done carefully without
damaging valve seat insert bore in cylinder head,
fitment of an over size valve seat insert will not be
necessary.
•
All specified dimensions should be strictly
maintained to ensure proper interference of valve
seat insert in its bore.
•
Clean the valve seat insert and its bore in cylinder
head thoroughly.
Just before installation :
•
Place valve seat insert in a mixture of Methanol
and dry ice for about 20-30 minutes to bring its
temperature down to
-
150°C.
•
Heat cylinder head to approximately 80°C in water
bath.
•
Install valve seat insert in cylinder head bore
quickly by using mallet.
•
Machine valve seat in cylinder head.
