Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.
Before installing the parts, apply fresh engine oil to all sliding and rotating surface.
Replace oil seals with new ones.
Install the valves.
Using the SST (09222-2E000), push in a new stem seal (A).
Do not reuse old valve stem seals.
Incorrect installation of the seal could result in oil leakage past the valve guides.
Install the valve, valve spring and spring retainer.
Place the valve springs so that the side coated with enamel faces toward the valve spring retainer and then installs the retainer.
Using the SST (09222-3K000, 09222-3K100), compress the spring and install the retainer locks.
Before releasing the valve spring compressor, ensure that the retainer locks are correctly in place after pushing down and releasing the compressor handle 2 ~ 3 times.
When installing the SST, insert the front support (A) directly into the bolt hole on the cylinder head.
Do not press valve retainer more than 12 mm (0.47 in.).
Install the valve adjusting shims (A).
The intake valve adjusting shim has 41 size (160~240) depending on the thickness and it is selected in accordance with the measured results using precision measuring instruments in an engine production plant in order to minimize the deviation of valve lift between each cylinder. Thus, if the intake valve adjusting shim replacement is necessary, replace with the same size shim as its original shim.
The exhaust valves are mounted with the same size valve adjusting shim regardless of the engine. (No size mark)
