  2. Measure the depth of the inlet valve and the exhaust valve below the cylinder head face. Use the gauge body (2) and the dial indicator (1) in order to measure the depth.

    Refer to the Specifications Module, "Cylinder Head Valves" for the minimum, the maximum, and the service wear limits for the valve depth below the cylinder head face. The minimum and the maximum limits are dimensions for a new engine.

    Service wear occurs on an engine which has been in operation. If the valve depth below the cylinder head face on a used engine exceeds the specification for service wear, the following items must be replaced:

    • Valves

    • Valve inserts

    If the valve depth below the cylinder head face on a used engine exceeds the specification for service wear, the cylinder head may also need to be replaced.
