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.
