Required Tools    
5P-4160 Indicator Contact Point    
90° holding block with a collet    
1U-8869 Dial Indicator    
Fix the indicator and the surface probe to the 90° holding block. Find the area that is unworn between the saddle of the rocker shaft and the rocker arm shaft. Remove the burrs by lightly filing the edges at the top of the saddle on the rocker shaft. Set the indicator on the milled face of the head over the saddle of the rocker shaft. Locate the lowest point of the saddle by moving the block back and forth. Ensure that the block is perpendicular to the axis of the camshaft. Zero the indicator. Move the indicator back and forth in order to recheck the zero. If necessary, reset the indicator to zero.
When the indicator is reset move the indicator to the worn portion of the saddle of the rocker shaft at the end of the rocker arm shaft. Again, move the block back and forth in order to make sure that the block is perpendicular to the axis of the camshaft. Record the lowest negative number as the maximum amount of wear. The lowest number will be the lowest point.
Repeat the procedure to measure the worn portion of the saddle at both edges of the support for the center of the rocker arm shaft, and the worn portion of the saddle at the opposite end of the rocker arm shaft.Note: The guideline for replacing the cylinder head for the fretting of the rocker arm shaft is 0.5 mm (0.019 inch) of wear difference. To calculate the wear differences subtract the wear number of the end of the rocker arm shaft saddle from the wear number for the center support saddle on that side of the rocker arm shaft. If the cylinder head is less than 0.5 mm (0.019 inch) the cylinder head is reusable.
