Measurement of the valve depth
(1) Dial indicator
(2) Gauge body
Position gauge body (2) and dial indicator (1) in order to measure the valve depth. Measure the depth of the inlet valve and the exhaust valve before the valve springs are removed. Refer to Specifications, "Cylinder Head Valves" for the minimum, the maximum, and the service wear limits for the valve depth below the cylinder head face.If the valve depth below the cylinder head face exceeds the service limit, use a new valve to check the valve depth. If the valve depth still exceeds the service limit, renew the cylinder head. If the valve depth is within the service limit, renew the valves.
Inspect the valves for cracks and other damage. Check that the valve stems for wear. Check that the valve springs are the correct length under the test force. Refer to Specifications, "Cylinder Head Valves" for the dimensions and tolerances of the valves and valve springs.
