Scheme 595

Scheme 595: Special Tool(s)
  1. Use a Dial Indicator Gauge with Holding Fixture to measure camshaft end play.
  2. Position the camshaft to the rear of the cylinder head.
  3. Zero the indicator.
  4. Move the camshaft to the front of the cylinder head. Note and record the camshaft end play. If camshaft end play exceeds specifications, install new camshaft and recheck end play. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure. If camshaft end play exceeds specification after camshaft installation, install a new cylinder head. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure.

Scheme 596

Scheme 596: Camshaft Surface Inspection
  1. Inspect camshaft lobes for pitting or damage in the contact area. Minor pitting is acceptable outside the contact area. If excessive pitting or damage is present, install new components as necessary. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure.

Scheme 597

Scheme 597: Special Tool(s)
  1. Use a Dial Indicator Gauge with Holding Fixture to measure camshaft intake/exhaust lobe lift. Rotate the camshaft and subtract the lowest indicator reading from the highest indicator reading to figure the camshaft lobe lift. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure.

Scheme 598

Scheme 598: Special Tool(s)
  1. Use a Dial Indicator Gauge with Holding Fixture to measure the camshaft runout. Rotate the camshaft and subtract the lowest indicator reading from the highest indicator reading. For additional information, refer to the «SPECIFICATION CHART»(ref-232214-S15475004412006051600000) in the appropriate engine service information. If out of specification, install new components as necessary. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure.

Scheme 599

Scheme 599: Special Tool(s)
  1. Measure the crankshaft end play. Use a Dial Indicator Gauge with Holding Fixture to measure crankshaft end play.
  2. Position the crankshaft to the rear of the cylinder block.
  3. Zero the indicator.
  4. Move the crankshaft to the front of the cylinder block. Note and record the crankshaft end play. If crankshaft end play exceeds specifications, install a new crankshaft thrust washer or crankshaft thrust main bearing. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure.

Scheme 600

Scheme 600: Valve Stem Diameter
  1. Measure the diameter of each intake and exhaust valve stem at the points shown. Verify the diameter is within specification. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure. If out of specification, install new components as necessary. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure.

Scheme 601

Scheme 601: Valve Inspection
  1. Inspect the following valve areas: The end of the stem for grooves or scoring. The valve face and the edge for pits, grooves or scores. The valve head for signs of burning, erosion, warpage and cracking. The valve margin for wear.

Scheme 602

Scheme 602: Valve Guide Inner Diameter
  1. Use a ball gauge to determine the inner diameter of the valve guides in 2 directions at the top, middle and bottom of the valve guide.
  2. Measure the ball gauge with a micrometer. Refer to the appropriate service information for the specification.
  3. If the valve guide is not within specifications, ream the valve guide and install a valve with an oversize stem or remove the valve guide and install a new valve guide.

Scheme 603

Scheme 603: Valve Spring Free Length
  1. Measure the free length of each valve spring. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure. If out of specification, install new components as necessary. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure.

Scheme 604

Scheme 604: Valve Spring Squareness
  1. Measure the out-of-square on each valve spring. Turn the valve spring and observe the space between the top of the valve spring and the square. Install a new valve spring if out of square. Refer to the appropriate service information for the procedure.
