05-291 Machining valve seats
Preliminary work: | Operation no. of operation texts and work units |
Valve guides | check (05-285). |
Valve seats | machine according to tool manufacturer's operating instructions. See data sheet for settings. |
Valve seat | check for leakage (item 3). |
Valves | insert and measure dimension "a". |

Note
With the machining tools listed under commercially available tools the various angles on the valve seat are machined in one operation. Clamp cylinder head in clamping device to disassemble and machine. Machine valve seats with valve seat turning device, with valve seat grinder or valve seat mill.
After machining the valve seat inserts check the installation position of the hydraulic valve clearance compensating elements and correct,
if required (05-211).
It is also necessary to check the distance between the end of the valve stem and base of the camshaft bearing (01-418).
1 Check valve guide, replace, if required
(05-285).
2 Machine valve seats (see tool manufacturer's operating instructions).
3 Insert valves and check leakage of valve seat with vacuum tester.
4 Insert valves and measure distance (a).
If dimension (a) is not within tolerance, replace valve seat insert (05-290).
