Valve mechanism — maintenance and repair

1. If the parts of the valve mechanism are in poor condition, then the entire mechanism should be assembled by installing the parts in place on the cylinder head. The assembled head should be taken to the dealer's car service for repair. Do your own head repairs (replacement of saddles, guide bushings of spherical axes of rocker arms, grinding of a detachable plane, etc.) impossible, as special tools and equipment are required.

2. After checking and repairing the valves and their drive parts, the cylinder head is completely restored. Before installing the block head, flush it again to remove abrasive residue from grinding the head or lapping the valves. If possible, blow out all channels and bores of the cylinder head with compressed air.
