EXAMINATION OF COMPONENTS 
Petrol engine 
32. Examine the cylinder  head for cracks  and 
distortion.  Burnt, pitted and pocketed  seats  must 
be  repaired. 
Diesel  engine 
33. Same as for petrol  engine  and in addition,  worn or 
damaged  exhaust  seat inserts  should  be renewed, 
as described  later. 
Hot plugs and injector shrouds - examine and renew 
When carrying out normal  top  overhaul  work on  the 
cylinder  head 
it is  not  necessary  to rcmove either the 
injector  shrouds 
or the hot  plugs. 
Small  surface cracks 
in the hot plug, extending  from the 
opening  to approximately 
8,O inn1 (,0.312 in) in length 
can be ignored. However if any  severe cracks appear  on 
the  face 
of the hot  plug, before  attempting to remove it, 
closely  inspect the cylinder  head for signs of cracks, 
particularly  between the inlet  and  exhaust  valve seats. 
Such  cracking  indicates  that the engine  has overheated, 
usually  through  lack 
of coolant,  and  the  cylinder  head 
hhould be scrapped. 
.. *. ,. , ,. 
34. To remove a hot plug, insert a thin soft metal  drift 
through  the injector  shroud throat and tap  the 
hot 
plug  from the inside.  Once removed  a faulty  hot 
plug  cannot  be restored and  must be renewed. 
35. If the injector shroud  is damaged,  drift the shroud 
out towards the injector  bore. 
36. Thoroughly  clean out  the  combustion  chamber. 
The 
hole in the  side  of the  injector  shroud is for 
manufacturing  purposes only but 
at the same time 
can  be used  as a guide  when  refitting  the shroud. 
37. Smear a  little oil on the shroud  and  insert into the 
cylinder  head  with the 
hole pointing  towards  the 
centre 
of the cylinder  head, and drift into 
position. 
34 38 ST677M 
38. Fit  the  hot  plugs  by tapping with a hidc-faced 
mallet,  and  locate  with a new roll pin. If thc hot 
plugs  are loose 
in the  cylinder  head they may be 
retained 
with a  little  grease. 
39. When fitted, the hot plugs  must  be checked  with ii 
dial test  indicator  to  ensure that they do not 
protrude  above the  level 
of the cylinder  head  Cace 
more  than 
0,025 mm (0.001 in) and  are not 
recessed  below the level 
of the cylinder  head  face 
more than 
0.05 mm (U.002 in).

40. Chcck  the  valve  guides  for  wear by inserting  a 
new  valve 
in the appropriate  guide 8 mm above 
the  seat.  If movement  across  the head exceeds 
0,15 mm (0.006 in) renew the  guide. 
41.  Inspect  the  valves and discard  any that  are burnt, 
bent 
or distorted.  Check  the  stems for wear  by 
inserting  in a new  guide.  If wear  is 
excessivc, 
discard  the  valve. Valve faces that are pitted or 
ridged  but otherwise  serviceable  may be refaced. 
42.  Renew  push rods  that  are bent 
or have  worn or 
scored  ball or socket ends. 
Renew push rod tube seals (Diesel  only)

NOTE: Later  engines  are fitted  with tubes  without  seals. 
See 
2.5 litre  Diesel  engine for renewal. 
Sl 
45. Fit new  sealing  rings to new  push  rod tubes  and 
smear  with silicone  MS4 grease. 
46.  Insert the  new tubes,  chamfered  end first from 
the 
combustion  chamber side. Align the flat on the 
push 
rod tube  at right  angles  to an  imaginary  line 
between  the centre 
of the  push  rod tube  and 
centre  of the hot  plug. 
47.  Press  the  push 
rod tubes into position  whilst 
maintaining  the alignment. 
Also ensure  that the 
chamfers 
on the  tubes  and in the cylinder  head are 
fully  engaged. 
Renew valve guide 
48. Support  the  cylinder head, combustion  chamber 
uppermost  on pieces  of timber  of sufficient 
thickness 
to allow  clearance for the valve  guides 
to be driven  out. 
49. Using  special  drift 274400 for inlet  guides  and 
274401  for exhaust 
guidcs or suitable  alternatives 
drive 
out the  old guides  from the combustion  face 
side.

50. Turn the cylinder head over so the combustion 
chambers  face downwards.  Since the 
inlet and 
exhaust  valve guides  are dimensionally  different 
it 
is important  that the correct  guides are fitted  to 
the  appropriate  ports. 
51. Lubricate new guides with engine oil and using 
special  drift 600959  for the  exhaust  and 601508  for 
the 
irrlet valve  guides or suitable  alternatives, 
drive 
in the new  guides until the shoulder is flush 
with  the casting. 
53. The  special  set of hand tools recommended for 
refacing  include expandable  pilots that fit tightly 
into new or worn guides  to ensure  that the valve 
seat  is concentric  with valve  guide. 
The refacing 
tool  has tungsten  carbide cutters and can be used 
to  cut 
a seat in a new  exhaust  seat insert. 
54.  Select  the correct  expandable  collet for the  valve 
guide  concerned 
i.e. 8 mm for inlet  guides  and 
83 mm for exhaust. 
55. Loosely  assemble  the collet,  expander  and nuts. 
Ensure  that the chamfered  end 
of the expander  is 
towards 
the collet. 
Reface  cylinder  head valve  seats 
52. Damaged or worn  valve  seats can be refaced 
provided  they are not  abnormally  wide due to 
repeated  refacing operations. 
See instruction  64.

56. Insert  the assembled  pilot into the valve  guide 
from  the combustion  face side of the  cylinder 
head  until the shoulder  contacts 
thc valve guidc 
and the whole  of the  collet  is inside  the valve 
guide. 
57. Expand  the collet in the  guide  by turning  the 
tommy bar clockwise  whilst holding the knurled 
nut.

59. Ensure that the cutter  blades  are correctly  fitted 
to  the

downwards  facing the work,  as illustrated.  Check 
that  the cutter  blades  are adjusted 
so that  the

IJf the  blade  contacts  the area of material 
to be  cut. Use the key  provided in the  hand  set

60. Fit the  wrench to the cutter  head  and  turn 
clockwise  using  only very light pressure. Continue 
cutting to  approximately  the centre  of the  existing 
seat. 
61. To  check.  the effectiveness  of [ne cutting 
operation  use engineers  blue 
or a feeler  gauge 
made 
from cellophane. 
38 
62. Smear a small quantity of engineers  blue round cQ 
the valve  seat and revolve a properly ground  valve -- ..... 
against the seat. A continuous fine line  should 
appear  round the valve. 
If there  is a gap of not 
more  than 12 
mm it can be corrected  by lapping. 
63.  Alternatively,  insert  a strip  ofcellophanc  between 
the  valve  and seat,  hold the valve  down  by the 
stem and  slowly pull out 
the cellophane. If there  is 
a  drag the  seal is satisfactory 
in that  spot.  Repeat 
this 
in at  least  eight  places.  Lapping-in will correct 
a  small  open spot. 
64.  After  several  trueing
-up or lapping-in operations 
valve  seats may have  an excessive  width  which  can 
be  reduced  by obtaining  special correction  cutters 
which  narrow 
the seat by removing  metal from the 
top  and  bottom 
of the scat. A 60 cutter  is 
recommended  for  bottom  narrowing  and 
for top 
narrowing  use a 
15 cutter (MS 621)  for a 30 valve
