Disassembly and assembly
d. Continue to rotate the crankshaft and gradually
release the pressure on Tooling (B) until the
piston is at the top center position. The valve is
now held in a position that allows the valve
spring to be safely removed.
NOTICE
Do not turn the crankshaft while the valve springs are
removed.
Note: Valve springs must be replaced in pairs for the
inlet valve or the exhaust valve of each cylinder. If all
valve springs require replacement, the procedure can
be carried out on two cylinders at the same time. The
procedure can be carried out on the following pairs of
cylinders, 1 with 4 and 2 with 3. Ensure that all of the
valve springs are installed before changing from one
pair of cylinders to another pair of cylinders.

2. Apply sufficient pressure to Tooling (B) in order to
allow removal of valve keepers (1). Remove valve
keepers (1).
Note: Do not compress the spring so that valve
spring retainer (2) touches the valve stem seal.
3. Slowly release the pressure on Tooling (B).
4. Remove valve spring retainer (2) and remove
valve spring (3).
5. If necessary, remove the valve stem seal in order
to remove valve spring seat (4).
6. Repeat Steps 2 through 5 in order to remove the
remaining valve spring from the appropriate
cylinder.
7. Remove Tooling (B).
