a. There are
only
a few major service operations that cannot be per
formed individually without removing the engine
from
the chassis;
however, it is advisable to remove the engine for
an overhaul as
it is
much easier to clean
and
service when removed. There are numerous
individual operations in
servicing
an
engine,
many
of which
require
identical disassembly operations.
b.
In
the
service
operations
covered in
this
section,
complete instruc
tions
for removing and replacing
the
manifold assembly, cylinder head,
oil
pan,
push rod cover, and timing
gear
cover are
given.
c. Follow the
disassembly procedure
given in
this section
and the
cleaning
and
repair
instructions given
in sections
V and VI for other
service operations which might
occasionally
be required without engine
removal.
The
manifold
gaskets
may
be
replaced as
a separate
operation without removing
the carburetor
and manifold completely.
(1)
REMOVE, AIR
CLEANER.
Loosen
the

it is impo
rtant that the
special
replacers
KM-J1089 for

and
KM-J1090 for
exh
aust be used, as they
have a shoulder to
position
the guides.

(1)
Reconditioning
valve seat
s on
modern
high
compression engines
is
becoming mo
re
and
more important, because
the
seating of valves
must be perfect
in
or
der for the
engine to deliver
the
power and per
formancethat
has
been built
into it .
(2) Anoth
er important fact
or
is the c
ooling of the valv
e heads.
Good
contact between
the
valve
and
its
seat
is
necessary
if
the heat
in
thevalve h
ead
is
to be properly dissipated.
(3)
Various
types
of valve seat
grinders and valve reseating
equip
ment
are on the market.
When using them the
instructions o f
the
ma
nufacturer sho
uld be followed.

A
grinder
of
th
e eccentric type
for
the
reconditioning o f valve
seats
is
described in
the
following paragraphs.

Before
attempting to
grind
any
valve
seat,
clean carbon
thor
oughly
from the valve port; wipe seat
with
SOLVENT, dry-cleaning,
removing any
grease or foreign
matter. Great
care should be
taken to
clean
the
inside
of the
guide with a
wire brush and
make sure
it is
free from carbon
and
dirt. These precautions permit
proper
centering
of the
pilot
in the guide.
(6) INSTALL EXPANDING PILO T
(fig.
12). Install the expanding pilot
in the
guide using the special wrench; expand the pilot with
the knurled
knob
on
the top
of
the
wrench,
and
remove
the
wrench.
(7) DRESSING
T H E
GRINDING W H E E L (fig. 13).
The
grinding
wheel
should
be dressed
before
commencing any valve regrind job. Set the
grinder over
the
2
top pilots
of
the
dresser
stand. When the grinder is
seated on these
pilots, the
wheel
will
pass
over
the
stud projecting
through
A
and the grinder will
be
in
position
to dress the wheel. Set
the diamond dressing tool
at
the 30-degree
angle.
